Industry (including construction) value added as % of GDP NV.IND.TOTL.ZS
Belarus's industry value added was 31.26% in 2025, ranked 52nd globally. This represents a 1.8% increase from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1990–2025.
Overview
Belarus's industry value added stood at 31.26% in 2025, a rise of +0.56% from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 31.26% by 2025. Belarus ranked 52nd globally.
Belarus’s industry value added fell from its all‑time peak of 45.96 in 1990 to a trough of 30.71 in 2024, before reaching a 2025 level of 31.26, placing the country 52nd globally. The 36‑year series shows a persistent downward trajectory, with the post‑Soviet transition and subsequent economic restructuring eroding the industrial base. By 2025 Belarus’s share of gross domestic product from industry is marginally above Uzbekistan’s 31.21 and just below Ghana’s 31.45, indicating that its performance now aligns more closely with other emerging economies rather than its former Soviet peers such as the Russian Federation, which posted 31.16. The modest rebound from the 2024 trough suggests limited recovery, but the continued decline from the 1990 peak underscores structural challenges in modernising manufacturing and diversifying output. Future improvements will likely depend on reforms that attract investment, upgrade technology and integrate Belarusian industry into regional value chains, which could reverse the long‑term downward trend.
