FX.co ★ Turkey’s Industrial Output Growth Slows Sharply to 1.2% in December

Turkey’s industrial production growth cooled in December 2025, with month‑over‑month output rising 1.20%, down from a 2.50% increase in November 2025, according to data updated on 10 February 2026.

On a month‑over‑month basis, the latest reading shows that while the industrial sector continued to expand at year-end, the pace of growth more than halved compared with the previous month. In November, production had climbed 2.50% versus October, but December’s 1.20% rise indicates a notable loss of momentum.

The figures underscore a moderation in industrial activity heading into 2026, as the “actual” data for December reflects a weaker incremental gain than November’s “previous” comparison period. Investors and analysts will be watching upcoming releases to determine whether this slowdown in sequential growth marks a temporary pause or the beginning of a more sustained cooling in Turkey’s industrial sector.
