The Czech Republic's manufacturing sector showed signs of recovery in February 2025 as the S&P Global Czech Republic Manufacturing PMI rose to 47.7. This marks an improvement from the previous month’s figure of 46.6 recorded in January 2025.
While the PMI remains below the benchmark of 50, which separates expansion from contraction, the increase signals a moderation in the contraction of the manufacturing sector. The improvement comes amidst a challenging economic climate, as manufacturers navigate supply chain disruptions and raw material shortages.
Updated data as of March 3, 2025, indicates cautious optimism among manufacturers, as the industry anticipates further improvements fueled by potential relief in supply chain pressures and strengthened domestic demand in the coming months. Nonetheless, stakeholders remain watchful, as overall economic uncertainties and external factors could influence the path ahead for the sector.
