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.
