Romania’s industry sector contribution fluctuated from a high of 45.9% in 1990, declining due to post-communist restructuring and economic liberalization. Despite initial declines, a resurgence in the early 2000s saw contributions reach 40.2% by 2011, boosted by EU integration and foreign investment in manufacturing. However, the industry’s share decreased gradually, stabilizing around 28-30% in recent years. By 2022, the contribution was 28.9%, reflecting Romania’s strong industrial base balanced with increased focus on IT and services, aligning with EU economic trends toward digital transformation.
