The United Nations Industrial development Organization (UNIDO) has
released its international industrial statistical database on world manufacturing output for the third quarter of 2015, saying it grew by 2.7 per cent.
In Africa manufacturing output rose by just 0.1 per cent.
In the report, Shyam Upadhyaya, UNIDO Chief Statistician, said the
organisation regularly releases the statistics on current growth trends
of global manufacturing at country and regional level, adding that for
the first time in recent years, the growth trend in industrialized
economies was upward compared to declining trend in developing and
emerging industrial economies.
