Türkiye’s industrial production rose by 8.3% year-on-year in June 2025 to its highest annual growth rate since February 2024, the Turkish Statistical Institute (TurkStat) reported on Monday.
Industrial production is tracked through the industrial production index, which uses 2021 as the reference year with a base value of 100. An index above 100 indicates higher output compared with that base year.
Manufacturing sector leads output growth in Türkiye
Within the main sub-sectors, manufacturing which covers the production of goods in factories such as machinery, textiles, and vehicles recorded a 9.5% annual increase.
Mining and quarrying, which includes extracting minerals and raw materials from the earth, grew by 2.3%.
In contrast, the electricity, gas, steam, and air conditioning supply sector, which covers energy generation and distribution, fell by 1.1% compared with the same month last year.
Mining activities contract by over 5%
Compared with May 2025, manufacturing output rose by 0.9%, and energy production and distribution increased by 1.9%.
However, mining and quarrying output dropped by 5%.
Monthly changes in the index can indicate short-term shifts in demand, supply chain activity, or seasonal factors.
High-tech products lead production gains
Industry and Technology Minister Mehmet Fatih Kacir said the largest annual increase was recorded in the high-technology product group — a classification covering products that require advanced engineering and research, such as electronics, medical devices, and aerospace components.
“We will continue to accelerate Türkiye’s development through value-added production, employment-supporting measures, and exports,” Kacir said in his statement.
