¿Cuánto vale la industria manufacturera global?

El valor agregado de la manufactura global alcanzó $16.83 billones en 2024.

El valor agregado de la manufactura representa la producción neta del sector después de restar los insumos intermedios de la producción bruta. Esta cifra creció de $12.3 billones en 2013 a $14.2 billones en 2018, cayendo brevemente durante los años de pandemia 2019-2020, recuperándose en gran medida para 2021 a $16.1 billones y alcanzando $16.83 billones en 2024.
