BLOM PMI hits record 50.7 in July
Lebanon's Purchasing Managers' Index (BLOM PMI) for July 2026 rose to 50.7 points, marking its highest level ever and indicating continued economic expansion for the second consecutive month. The growth was supported by an improvement in domestic demand, with new orders reaching a five-month high. However, export pressures persisted due to rising shipping costs and regional instability. Despite increased purchasing activity and higher inventory levels, the report noted that geopolitical uncertainty and supply chain challenges continue to negatively impact confidence and export performance, with raw material costs reaching their highest level in 40 months.
