Mexico’s industrial sector returned to growth in June 2026, with industrial production rising 1.7% year-on-year, according to data updated on 11 August 2026. The improvement marks a clear reversal from May 2026, when output contracted by 0.7% compared with the same month a year earlier.
The figures are based on a year-over-year comparison, measuring June 2026 activity against June 2025 levels. The previous reading for May reflected a decline relative to May 2025, underscoring the significance of June’s move back into positive territory.
The swing from a 0.7% annual drop in May to a 1.7% annual gain in June suggests a strengthening in Mexico’s industrial momentum as the second half of 2026 gets underway, and will be closely watched by investors and policymakers tracking the country’s growth outlook.
