Latvia’s Producer Price Index (PPI) returned to positive territory in January 2026, signaling a shift in price dynamics at the factory gate level. According to the latest data updated on 20 February 2026, producer prices rose 0.6% month-over-month, following a 1.1% decline in December 2025.
The figures are based on a month-over-month comparison, where the January result is measured against December 2025, and the previous reading reflects December’s change relative to November. The move from a -1.1% drop to a 0.6% increase suggests that downward pressure on producer prices has eased, with potential implications for cost structures in Latvian industry and, over time, broader inflation trends.
