Colombia’s industrial sector returned to growth in September 2026, with industrial production rising 1.5% year over year, according to data updated on 13 November 2026. The rebound marks a notable turnaround from August 2026, when industrial output had contracted by 3.7% compared with the same month a year earlier.

The latest figures, measured on a year-over-year basis, indicate that September’s performance not only reversed the previous month’s decline but also signaled improving momentum in the country’s industrial activity. August’s reading reflected a year-on-year drop, while September’s increase shows that output in that month exceeded its level from September of the prior year.

This shift from a 3.7% contraction in August to 1.5% growth in September suggests stabilizing conditions in Colombia’s industrial landscape, with analysts likely to watch upcoming releases closely to assess whether this recovery can be sustained in the final quarter of 2026.
