Poland’s Producer Price Index (PPI) rose 2.8% year-over-year in July 2026, up from 1.7% in June, signaling a notable acceleration in factory-gate price growth. The data, updated on 20 August 2026, reflects price changes at the producer level compared with the same month a year earlier.

The July reading indicates that cost pressures for Polish producers are intensifying compared with earlier in the summer, when June’s PPI increase was more moderate. Both the current and previous figures are calculated on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month’s producer prices to those of the same month a year before. The pickup from 1.7% to 2.8% suggests a strengthening inflationary pulse in the industrial sector, which could in time filter through to consumer prices and influence monetary policy expectations.

Market participants and policymakers will be watching subsequent PPI releases closely to determine whether July’s jump represents the beginning of a more persistent upward trend in producer prices or a temporary acceleration driven by short-term factors.
