The valued added by the manufacturing sector to GDP varies significantly across different countries worldwide. In 2023, the manufacturing sector in China added nearly 4.8 trillion U.S. dollars to the country's GDP, while this value in the United States amounted to 2.8 trillion U.S. dollars in the same year.

The average for 2023 based on 37 countries was 13.84 percent. The highest value was in Cambodia: 26.33 percent and the lowest value was in Macao: 0.76 percent. The indicator is available from 1960 to 2023. Below is a chart for all countries where data are available.

In 2023, Puerto Rico was the territory in Latin America and the Caribbean with the highest share of value added by the manufacturing industry to the gross domestic product (GDP). Around 45 percent of the total value added to Puerto Rico's GDP was generated by this sector. If values for 2022 are also considered, Suriname ranked second, with a share that amounted to 29 percent.

The average for 2023 based on 41 countries was 12.67 percent. The highest value was in Ireland: 29.44 percent and the lowest value was in Montenegro: 3.18 percent. The indicator is available from 1960 to 2023. Below is a chart for all countries where data are available.

In 2021, China, Germany, and Japan were the powerhouses of machine tool industry worldwide. That year, China accounted for 31 percent of the world's machine tool production, while Germany and Japan each accounted for 13 percent.

Machine tool production by country In 2020, China topped the ranking of the largest machine tool producing countries worldwide. With machine tool production to the value of about 21.8 billion euros, China's market share increased to 31 percent from 29 the year before. China, Germany, and Japan were the three leading machine tool manufacturers globally, while the United States (6.3 billion euros) and Italy (5.7 billion euros) accounted for nine and eight percent of global machine tool production respectively.

Leading machine tool manufacturers The world’s biggest machine tool manufacturing companies include China’s Shenyang, Germany’s Trumpf, and Germany-based DMG Mori Seiki . Overall, Asian countries accounted for over 50 percent of global machine tool production. The leading Asian machine tool producing countries include China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and India.

Industrial output across the OECD fell by significant amount between the 1960s and 1970s, when annual averages are compared. Overall, the OECD saw industrial output grow by almost six percent in each year between 1960 and 1970, whereas this growth fell to just 3.5 percent per year between 1971 and 1978. The largest individual decline of the major economies was observed in Japan, who saw a difference of nine percent between the two periods. The largest proportional decline of the given countries, however, was observed in Switzerland, where annual industrial output between 1971 and 1978 was less than one tenth of the rate in the previous period. The primary reason for this decline was due to the 1973-1975 recession that resulted from the oil embargo of 1973, which highlighted the developed world's increasing dependency on foreign oil imports. This recession also marked the end of the post-war economic boom, but saw the transition of economies such as Japan, West Germany, and wider European Economic Community in general (i.e. the predecessor to the EU) into global economic powers.

From the 1920s until the Second World War, industrial output in the major economies of the Americas fluctuated greatly. Using manufacturing output in 1938 as a benchmark, the U.S. had fairly consistent output throughout the 1920s, before there was a significant drop after the Wall Street Crash in 1929 - by 1932, output fell to around two thirds of its 1929 level, and it would take another five years to recover thereafter. After the Recession of 1937-38, manufacturing output then doubled by the early-1940s, as the U.S. ramped up armament before it joined the Second World War. Output in 1943 was almost three times higher than it had been in 1938.

Canada's industrial output followed a similar trend to that of the U.S., whereas Mexico saw comparatively little change across the given period. Similar to Mexico, Brazil's manufacturing output was not drastically affected by the Great Depression, although Brazil saw the largest relative growth over the given period, with output in 1944 over five times higher than it had been in the mid-1920s - it should be noted, however, that both Latin American countries' manufacturing industries were at a much lower stage of development than the North American industries during this time.

This paper documents how US firms organize goods production across firm and country boundaries. Most US firms that perform physical transformation tasks in-house using foreign manufacturing plants in 2007 also own US manufacturing plants; moreover manufacturing comprises their main domestic activity. By contrast, “factoryless goods producers” outsource all physical transformation tasks to arm's-length contractors, focusing their in-house efforts on design and marketing. This distinct firm type is missing from standard analyses of manufacturing, growing in importance, and increasingly reliant on foreign suppliers. Physical transformation “within-the-firm” thus coincides with substantial physical transformation “within-the-country,” whereas its performance “outside-the-firm” often also implies “outside-the-country.” Despite these differences, factoryless goods producers and firms with foreign and domestic manufacturing plants both employ relatively high shares of US knowledge workers. These patterns call for new models and data to capture the potential for foreign production to support domestic innovation, which US firms leverage around the world.
