Manufacturing Share of GDP by Country 2024
Key Findings
About This Dataset
Manufacturing Share of GDP by Country 2024Puerto Rico leads with manufacturing at 44.1% of GDP, roughly 15 points clear of Ireland on 29.6%, and both figures are shaped by pharmaceutical plants operated by multinationals rather than by domestic industrial tradition. Removing mining and construction transforms the picture entirely: not one of the oil states that dominate the broader industry ranking appears here. Instead Asia's factory economies emerge, with Cambodia on 27.8%, South Korea on 26.6%, China on 24.8%, Vietnam on 24.3%, Thailand on 24.2% and Malaysia on 22.5% taking six of the eleven places. South Korea is the only high-income country in that group, showing how rare it is for a wealthy nation to stay this manufacturing-heavy as services expand.
