Producer prices in the Philippines rose by 2.4% year-on-year in April 2026, easing slightly from an upwardly revised 2.6% increase in March, which had marked the highest reading in three years. The moderation was mainly due to slower price growth for coke and refined petroleum products (5.3% vs 8.2% in March), which accounted for 62.7% of the annual increase in the manufacturing PPI during the month. Price growth also softened for computer, electronic, and optical products (4.3% vs 4.9%) and basic metals (3.8% vs 4.9%). Meanwhile, inflation picked up for food (1.4% vs 1.2%), led by the processing and preserving of fish, crustaceans, and mollusks industry, which recorded a 1.8% rise after falling 2.3% in the prior month. Other notable price increases were observed in transport equipment (1.9% vs 1.0%), chemicals and chemical products (1.8% vs 0.8%), and other non-metallic mineral products (2.0% vs 0.9%).
