Albania Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by Year (1984–2023)

Albania's GDP has shown dynamic growth from 1984 to 2023, shaped by political shifts, economic reforms, and global economic conditions. After a sharp decline in the early 1990s during the transition from a centralized economy to a market-driven model, GDP gradually rebounded. This was largely driven by the stabilization of Albania’s institutions and the liberalization of its economy. As the country opened up to international trade and investment, sectors like agriculture, construction, and services contributed to more consistent economic expansion. However, periods of economic challenges, including the global financial crisis of 2008, temporarily slowed growth. More recently, Albania has experienced steady progress, with significant GDP increases in the 2020s, aided by improved infrastructure, tourism, and integration into global markets. Challenges like the 2020 pandemic had an impact, but Albania's economy continues to grow, supported by a focus on modernization and regional partnerships.
