Spain’s manufacturing sector enjoyed a bounce in performance during September.

Spain’s manufacturing economy expanded at a marked and accelerated rate during May on the back of rapidly increasing production and new order levels. Purchasing activity was raised to a quicker degree as firms geared up for future growth. They also added to their staffing levels to the greatest degree for over two years.

Output charges were subsequently increased for the first time since March ...
Spain’s manufacturing economy expanded at an accelerated rate in April as firms bolstered production and employment levels in response to an uplift in market demand. Buoyed by positive output projections, manufacturers also increased their buying activity and sought to rebuild inventories at their plants.
