Poland’s Producer Price Index (PPI) accelerated in August 2026, signaling mounting cost pressures at the factory gate. Year-over-year producer prices rose 4.2% in August, up from 3.1% in July 2026, according to data updated on 18 September 2026.
Both figures reflect year-over-year changes, comparing each month to the same period a year earlier. The pickup from July to August suggests that input and production costs for Polish manufacturers are rising at a faster pace, which could eventually feed through into consumer prices if sustained. Investors and policymakers are likely to watch upcoming PPI releases closely for signs of persistent inflationary pressure within the industrial sector.
