Industrial production in Poland grew 5.6 percent in March compared with the same month a year earlier, the country’s Central Statistical Office (GUS) said on Thursday.
The reading was higher than forecast by analysts, who had expected an increase of 4.5 percent, Poland’s PAP news agency reported.
In month-on-month terms, industrial production in March was 9.8 percent higher than in February, the Central Statistical Office said.
In February, Polish industrial production grew 6.9 percent in year-on-year terms, the statistics office reported last month.
