The data were compiled by the Central Statistical Bureau (CSB).
Compared to November of the year before, in November 2016 production increase was influenced by a notable rise in most manufacturing sectors, including manufacturing of high- and medium-high-tech industries, such as manufacture of motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers (+46.6 %), manufacture of electrical equipment (+31.3 %), manufacture of computer, electronic and optical products (+14.6 %), manufacture of machinery and equipment (+12.2 %), as well as manufacture of basic pharmaceutical products and pharmaceutical preparations.
Rise in the demand for products in export markets, especially in the non-euro area, was one of the main factors contributing to the production output increase, the CSB said.
