Ghana’s Producer Price Index (PPI) rose to 4.40% year-over-year in August 2026, up from 4.00% in July 2026, according to data updated on 16 September 2026. The increase signals a modest acceleration in price growth at the factory gate level.
Both the current and previous readings are measured on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month’s producer prices to the same month a year earlier. The move from 4.00% in July to 4.40% in August suggests that cost pressures faced by producers have intensified slightly, which could, over time, influence consumer prices and corporate margins if the trend persists.
