Turkey’s Producer Price Index (PPI) growth moderated in May 2026, offering a tentative sign of easing cost pressures in the industrial sector. Month-over-month, PPI rose 2.75%, down from a 3.17% increase in April 2026, according to data updated on 5 June 2026.

The monthly comparison shows that while producer prices are still rising, the pace of increase has slowed slightly. The April figure of 3.17% reflected the change from March to April, while the latest 2.75% reading captures the change from April to May. This deceleration may be watched closely by markets and policymakers as an early indicator of potential relief in upstream inflation pressures, which can later feed through to consumer prices.

For now, the data suggests that producer inflation in Turkey remains elevated on a monthly basis, but with a modest step down in momentum that could influence expectations for future pricing and monetary policy decisions.
