2026.04.0306:45:00UTC+00French Industrial Output Turns Negative in February, Falling 0.7% MoM

France’s industrial production declined in February 2026, reversing the modest growth seen at the start of the year, according to data updated on 3 April 2026. Output fell 0.7% month-over-month, compared with a 0.2% increase in January 2026.

On a month-over-month basis, the latest reading shows that the industrial sector has moved from expansion to contraction, underscoring renewed pressure on French manufacturers after a brief period of growth. The comparison period indicates that while January’s 0.2% rise marked an improvement on the preceding month, February’s negative print erased those gains and points to a more fragile production environment heading into the spring.
