The January increase was mainly due to a 4.6% rise in manufacturing production, which has the largest weight in total output, of 76.5%, the Skopje-based statistics agency said.
Production also bounced back for mining & quarrying (9.4% vs -24.2% in December). In contrast, output fell deeper for electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply (-15.8% vs -12.1%).
