Inflation falls for 11th straight month to 6.3% in November 2025 — GSS

Ghana’s inflation rate has dropped for the eleventh consecutive month, easing to 6.3% in November 2025 from 8.0% in October, according to the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) report released by the Ghana Statistical Service (GSS).

Presenting the data in Accra, the Government Statistician, Dr. Alhassan Iddrisu, attributed the decline to significant reductions in both food and non-food inflation. Overall, prices rose by 0.9% between October and November 2025.

Food inflation fell sharply to 6.6%, down from 9.5% in October, while non-food inflation also dropped to 6.1% from 6.9%. Inflation within the services sector eased to 3.8%, compared to 4.6% the previous month.

At the regional level, the North East Region recorded the highest rate at 12.3%, whereas the Savannah Region posted the lowest at -0.02%, indicating slight deflation.

Inflation for locally produced items decreased from 8.0% in October to 6.8% in November, while inflation for goods also slowed, declining to 7.3% from 9.3%.

The GSS encouraged businesses to leverage the lower inflation environment by investing in operational efficiency, strengthening local supply chains, reducing waste, and passing cost savings on to consumers to support further stabilization.
