UK Manufacturing Contracts the Least in a Year

The S&P Global UK Manufacturing PMI rose to 49.6 in October 2025, up from 46.2 in September and well above the market expectation of 46.6, according to a flash estimate.

The reading marked the weakest contraction since October 2024, as manufacturers recorded the fastest production increase since September 2024 (Output Index 51.2 vs 45.7) driven by restocking and a tentative pickup in domestic demand. Automotive suppliers noted ongoing challenges from the JLR cyberattack, though the phased restart of operations provided some support.

New orders remained under pressure, partly due to US tariffs, while job losses eased and business sentiment improved.
