Polish economy grows 0.8% in Q2, showing resilience amid trade challenges

Investing.com -- Poland’s economy expanded by 0.8% quarter-on-quarter in the second quarter of 2025, slightly below consensus expectations of 1.0% but maintaining solid momentum.

The growth follows a 0.7% expansion in the first quarter, indicating consistent economic performance. While the latest data release does not include a detailed breakdown, monthly activity indicators reveal strong performance in key sectors.

Retail sales showed particularly robust growth of 2.5% quarter-on-quarter in Q2, suggesting consumer-facing sectors continue to provide significant support to the Polish economy. Industrial production also demonstrated resilience with a 1.0% quarterly increase, indicating limited impact from US tariffs so far.

The economic performance supports the view that Poland will rank among the best performing economies in the European Union this year, despite ongoing trade challenges. The country’s ability to maintain growth momentum comes amid broader concerns about tariff impacts on European economies.

The Q2 figures provide evidence of Poland’s economic strength even as it navigates international trade tensions and adjusts to changing global market conditions.
