Industrial production in Ireland rose by 10.5% year-on-year in October 2025, easing modestly from an upwardly revised 11% increase in September.

This was underpinned by a 9.2% gain in manufacturing output, largely reflecting strong growth in bakery and farinaceous products, wood and wood products, as well as electrical equipment.

Looking at a broader timeframe, manufacturing production over the August–October period was 14.4% higher compared with the same three-month period in 2024.

Over the same period, output in the highly globalised modern sector, encompassing chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and computer and electronic products, posted a robust 18.3% year-on-year increase.

By contrast, production in the more domestically oriented traditional sector declined by 3.4%.
