Georgia Industrial Production

Industrial production in Georgia rose by 20.7% year-on-year in the first quarter of 2026, slowing from a 22.2% increase in the previous quarter. Manufacturing growth eased to 20.8% from 22.1% in Q4, largely reflecting a deceleration in the manufacture of food products (15.1% vs 24.9%). Growth also moderated in electricity, gas, steam, and air-conditioning supply (5.6% vs 13.3%). On the other hand, activity grew at a faster pace in mining and quarrying (46.8% vs 39.3%) and water supply, sewage, waste management, and remediation services (15.5% vs 10.3%). On a quarterly basis, industrial output dropped by 7.6%, reversing an 8.8% gain in the previous period.

Industrial production in Georgia grew by 22.2% year-on-year in the fourth quarter of 2025, accelerating sharply from a 3.9% rise in the third quarter. This marked the strongest growth since the third quarter of 2022, driven by faster expansions across all sectors, namely mining and quarrying (39.3% vs 19.0% in Q3), manufacturing (22.1% vs 2.1%), electricity, gas, steam, and air-conditioning supply (13.3% vs 5.4%), and water supply, sewage, waste management, and remediation services (10.3% vs 5.9%). On a quarterly basis, industrial output rose by 8.8%, following a 3.9% increase in the previous quarter.

Industrial production in Georgia increased by 3.9% year-on-year in the third quarter of 2025, easing from the sharp 9.3% advance recorded in the previous period. Output growth moderated across major sectors, including manufacturing (2.1% vs 7.6% in Q2), as the decline in manufacture of beverages (-4.9%), tobacco products (-13.1%), wearing apparel (-2.1%), and leather products (-29.6%) partially offset higher output for food products (+16%) and textiles (+14.6%). Activity also rose at a softer pace for mining and quarrying (19% vs 34.9%), due to a drop in extraction of crude petroleum and natural gas; and in water supply, sewage, waste management, and remediation services (5.9% vs 10.4%). In contrast, output gains accelerated in electricity, gas, steam, and air-conditioning supply (5.4% vs 4.2%). On a quarterly basis, industrial output rose 3.9%, decelerating from the 15.7% jump recorded in the preceding period.
