Turkey’s industrial production declined by 1.00% month-over-month in July 2026, marking a downturn after a slight expansion in the previous month, according to data updated on 10 September 2026.
The July reading contrasts with June 2026, when industrial output edged up by 0.10% compared with May, highlighting a weakening short-term momentum in the sector. On a month-over-month basis, the latest figure shows that the modest growth seen in early summer has given way to contraction as factories and industrial firms scaled back activity.
The data are based on month-over-month comparisons, where the current figure reflects the change from June to July 2026, while the previous indicator captured the change from May to June 2026. Investors and policymakers will be watching subsequent releases closely to gauge whether July’s decline signals the start of a more persistent slowdown in Turkish industrial activity or a temporary setback.
