Turkey’s industrial production returned to growth in September 2026, rising 2.6% year-over-year after a decline in the previous month, according to data updated on 10 November 2026.
The latest reading marks a sharp turnaround from August 2026, when industrial output fell 1.9% compared with the same month a year earlier. Measured on a year-over-year basis, the September figure indicates that Turkey’s industrial sector not only recovered the ground lost in August but moved back into positive territory.
The year-over-year comparison shows that while August highlighted lingering weakness in manufacturing and related sectors, September’s improvement suggests a stabilisation in industrial activity as the economy moves into the final quarter of 2026.
