The Asociación Salvadoreña de Industriales (ASI) views with optimism the recent projections from the technical staff of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which reaffirm economic growth for El Salvador of 4% by the close of fiscal year 2025.
As the industrial sector, we receive this result as a clear sign of confidence for international markets. Growth of this magnitude positions El Salvador on a favorable economic performance trajectory, demonstrating substantial progress in macroeconomic stability, predictability, and conditions conducive to productive investment.
At ASI, we believe this scenario projects a solid foundation for economic growth in 2026, favoring medium-term business planning, the continuity and expansion of productive investments, the attraction of local and foreign capital, as well as the strengthening of formal employment and exports.
“During 2025, salvadoran industry has demonstrated a sustained recovery in its productive activity, reaffirming its strategic role as one of the main drivers of economic growth, the generation of added value, and the integration of production chains in the national economy”, said Jorge Arriaza, president of the Asociación Salvadoreña de Industriales (ASI).
He also acknowledged the efforts of the Government of El Salvador aimed at preserving macroeconomic stability and fulfilling the commitments made to the International Monetary Fund, factors that contribute to strengthening the confidence of economic actors and the international community.
As the representative association of the industrial sector, the Asociación Salvadoreña de Industriales reiterates its commitment to continue promoting productive investment, innovation, the creation of quality jobs, and the expansion of export offerings, as a contribution to sustainable growth and El Salvador’s competitiveness in the regional and international environment.
