In the first quarter of 2026, Cyprus' construction sector experienced a 0.7% year-on-year increase in production, according to data released by the Statistical Service of Cyprus (Cystat). This modest growth coincided with a more significant rise in output prices, which surged by 4.7% during the same period. The Index of Production in Construction reached 120.74 points, reflecting the ongoing trends within this sector.
While the production levels saw a slight uptick, the increase in prices points to rising costs affecting the construction industry. The disparity between the growth in production and the more considerable hike in prices indicates a challenging economic environment for builders and contractors in Cyprus, as they face higher costs while production growth remains limited.
