Producer prices in Sweden rose by 2% year-on-year in March 2026, rebounding from a 1.7% decline in the previous month.

This marked the first month of increase in five months and the sharpest since February 2025, largely driven by a 15.8% surge (vs 3.5% in February) in energy prices.

Costs also increased for intermediate goods (0.7% vs -2.7%), while producer deflation softened for capital goods (-0.5% vs -2.7%) and consumer goods (-2.4% vs -3.6%).

Within consumer goods, costs rose for durable goods (2.9% vs 0.8%), while it fell at a slower pace for non-durable goods (-3.2% vs -4.2%).

Excluding energy-related products, producer prices fell by 0.5%, easing from a 3% drop in the prior month.

On a monthly basis, producer prices went up by 0.6% in March, following a 0.2% gain in the preceding period.

Domestic prices increased by 3.7%, driven by higher costs for refined petroleum products and fabricated metal products, while import prices rose by 3.7%, mainly due to increases in crude oil.
