Latvia's industrial sector experienced a notable setback in February 2025, with the industrial production index falling to 1.2% from the previous month's level of 2.3%, according to data updated on April 3, 2025. The month-over-month analysis reveals a significant deceleration in production activities, marking a challenging start to the year for the country's industrial growth trajectory.

The previous performance in January 2025 saw industrial production at a robust 2.3%, benefiting from growing demand and favorable economic conditions. However, the latest figures indicate a decrease in industrial output, signaling potential issues in the manufacturing sector or external economic pressures affecting the overall productivity.

Economists and industry experts will closely monitor the coming months to see if this downturn is a temporary dip or the beginning of a longer-term trend. The Latvian government and relevant stakeholders may need to implement corrective measures if the trend persists, to ensure the resilience and stability of the industrial sector. Further analysis and detailed insights are expected with more comprehensive data in the following months.
