Industry Sector Contribution to GDP in Cambodia (1993-2022)

Cambodia’s industry sector contribution to GDP rose steadily from 12.6% in 1993 to 37.9% in 2022, largely fueled by rapid industrialization and foreign investment in manufacturing, particularly in textiles and construction. The garment sector, benefiting from favorable trade agreements, has been a major driver, alongside infrastructure projects boosting construction. Growth momentum persisted even amid global economic disruptions, with slight increases during the COVID-19 period. Cambodia’s industry growth underscores the country’s shift from agriculture to a more diversified economy, though its heavy reliance on exports makes it sensitive to global market trends.
