FPI: Tatak Pinoy to drive growth
Manila Bulletin
|January 6, 2026
The country’s umbrella group of manufacturers and producers expects 2026 to be a strong year for domestic manufacturing with the full implementation of the Tatak Pinoy Act, which aims to further diversify the sector beyond major export commodities.
In a statement, the Federation of Philippine Industries (FPI) said the manufacturing sector is on track to grow this year, buoyed by the upward momentum reflected in the purchasing managers’ index (PMI) in December 2025.
S&P Global earlier reported that the country’s manufacturing PMI rose to 50.2 last month from a four-year low of 47.4 in November.
PMI is a barometer of manufacturing activity, with readings below 50 indicating contraction and those above 50 signaling expansion.
