Producer prices in Poland rose by 6.1% year-on-year in September 2026, exceeding market expectations for a 5.8% gain and accelerating from an upwardly revised 4.8% increase in the previous month.
This marked the seventh consecutive month of producer price growth and the highest reading since April 2023, driven by higher prices in all the major sectors, such as mining and quarrying (7.8% vs 6.8% in August), manufacturing (6.4% vs 5.1%), and electricity, gas steam and air conditioning (4.2% vs 2.7%).
Meanwhile, producer inflation remained steady at 2.1% for water supply; sewerage, waste management and remediation activities.
On a monthly basis, producer prices rose by 0.7% in September, easing from an upwardly revised 1.1% gain in the preceding period.
For the January to September period, producer prices were 1.9% higher compared to a year ago.
