Saudi Arabia’s Industrial Production Index (IPI) climbed 7.9% in June 2025 compared to the same month last year, according to the General Authority for Statistics (GASTAT).
The growth was broad-based across key sectors:
Mining and quarrying: +6% year-on-year
Manufacturing: +11.1%
Electricity, gas, steam, and air conditioning supply: +5.6%
Water supply, sewerage, waste management, and remediation: +6.9%
By main economic activities, oil-related output rose 7.7%, while non-oil activities recorded a stronger 8.6% increase — underscoring the Kingdom’s efforts to diversify its industrial base while sustaining robust energy production.
Published monthly, the IPI measures changes in production volume across key industries, using data from the Industrial Production Survey, which covers mining and quarrying, manufacturing, utilities, and water-related services.
The latest figures highlight the Kingdom’s steady industrial expansion in line with Vision 2030, which targets increased manufacturing capacity, stronger non-oil sectors, and greater economic resilience.
