Producer prices in Jordan rose by 5.41% year-on-year in September 2026. This figure marks an acceleration in the cost of goods at the factory gate compared to the previous month. Data from the reporting period shows that producer inflation in Jordan stood at 3.47% in August 2026. The shift represents a notable increase in price pressures within the national production sector over the two-month period. This year-on-year comparison notes how the inflationary environment evolved as the third quarter of the year progressed, signaling a distinct change in the financial landscape for domestic producers.
Monthly Price Trends Analysis
Monthly price data from Jordan indicates a shift in cost patterns at the factory gate during the third quarter of 2026. September 2026 saw producer prices increase by 0.92% on a monthly basis. This figure follows a period of contraction for the national production sector. Official records show that producer prices declined by 0.61% in August 2026. These monthly fluctuations reflect the changing cost environment for goods produced within the country as the quarter concluded. The transition from a monthly decline in August to an increase in September shows the volatility currently present in the national production and supply chain sectors.
Manufacturing and Mining Sector Growth
Manufacturing price growth reached 5.60% in September 2026, marking an increase from the 3.71% recorded in August 2026. This trend reflects shifting cost structures for goods produced within the national manufacturing sector over the two-month period. The acceleration in manufacturing costs suggests that inputs required for factory-level production became more expensive as the quarter reached its final month.
Mining and quarrying price growth also experienced an upward trajectory during the same interval. Prices in this segment grew by 6.46% in September 2026, a significant rise from the 1.50% growth observed in August 2026. These figures detail the specific inflationary pressures affecting Jordan’s core industrial sectors as they moved through the third quarter. The stark difference between the August and September figures for the mining and quarrying segment notes a rapid intensification of pricing trends for raw material extraction.
Specific Commodity Price Increases
Prices for coke and refined petroleum products recorded a significant jump in September 2026, rising by 49.1%. This increase follows the 33.67% growth rate observed in August 2026. The substantial rise in this specific category indicates that energy-related inputs played a primary role in the broader producer price index movements during this time.
Fabricated metal products, excluding machinery and equipment, also experienced a sharper upward trend during the same period. Producer prices for this category grew by 4.23% in September 2026, compared to a 0.38% increase in August 2026. This jump demonstrates that metal-based industrial goods were subject to heightened cost pressures as the quarter came to a close.
Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply prices saw more stable growth during the transition between the two months. Costs in this utility segment rose by 1.78% in September 2026, a slight change from the 1.74% growth reported in August 2026. This relative stability in utility pricing contrasts with the more volatile trends observed in manufacturing and raw material sectors.
