Chile’s manufacturing sector remained in negative territory in April 2026, but the pace of decline slowed compared with the previous month, according to the latest data updated on 29 May 2026. Year-over-year manufacturing production fell 2.5% in April, an improvement from March’s revised 4.5% decline.

The figures are based on annual comparisons, with the current reading measuring April 2026 output against April 2025, while the previous figure reflects March 2026 versus March 2025. The moderation in the contraction suggests some stabilization in industrial activity, though the sector has yet to return to growth, keeping pressure on Chile’s broader economic outlook and industrial exporters. Investors and policymakers will be watching upcoming data closely for signs of a more durable recovery in manufacturing.
