Mitindo ya Biashara katika Sekta, Ujenzi, Rejareja na Huduma - Septemba 2025
Mnamo Septemba 2025, kiashirio cha jumla cha hali ya hewa ya biashara kiliongezeka kwa pointi 0.6 ikilinganishwa na Agosti (kutoka 20.2% hadi 20.8%), huku ukuaji wa kiashirio ukisajiliwa katika sekta na rejareja. Hii ni kwa mujibu wa data iliyochapishwa na NSI.
Viwanda. Kiashiria cha mchanganyiko "hali ya hewa ya biashara katika tasnia" iliongezeka kwa alama 0.5 (kutoka 18.3% hadi 18.8%), ambayo ni kwa sababu ya tathmini iliyoboreshwa ya wajasiriamali wa viwanda kwa hali ya sasa ya biashara ya biashara. Kulingana na wao, katika mwezi uliopita kumekuwa na ongezeko fulani la utoaji wa uzalishaji na maagizo, ambayo pia inaambatana na kuongezeka kwa matarajio ya shughuli za uzalishaji katika miezi mitatu ijayo. Shida kuu zinazozuia shughuli katika sekta hiyo zinabaki kuwa mazingira ya kutokuwa na uhakika ya kiuchumi na uhaba wa wafanyikazi, unaoonyeshwa na 40.9 na 36.6% ya biashara, mtawaliwa. Utabiri wa wasimamizi wa bei za mauzo katika tasnia ni kwamba watadumisha kiwango chao kwa muda wa miezi mitatu ijayo.
Ujenzi. Mnamo Septemba, kiashiria cha mchanganyiko "hali ya hewa ya biashara katika ujenzi" ilipungua kwa pointi 2.3 (kutoka 24.9% hadi 22.6%) kama matokeo ya matarajio yaliyohifadhiwa zaidi ya wajasiriamali wa ujenzi kwa hali ya biashara ya makampuni katika kipindi cha miezi sita ijayo. Utabiri wao wa shughuli za ujenzi katika kipindi cha miezi mitatu ijayo pia ulizidi kuwa mbaya, huku uchunguzi huo pia ukiripoti kuongezeka kwa idadi ya wateja waliochelewa kulipwa. Athari hasi za sababu ya "mazingira yasiyo ya uhakika ya kiuchumi" imeongezeka katika mwezi uliopita, na kuondoa uhaba wa wafanyikazi katika nafasi ya pili. Kuhusu bei ya mauzo katika ujenzi, wasimamizi wanatarajia kubaki bila kubadilika katika kipindi cha miezi mitatu ijayo.
Biashara ya rejareja. Kiashiria cha mchanganyiko "hali ya hewa ya biashara katika biashara ya rejareja" iliongezeka kwa pointi 6.2 (kutoka 23.6% hadi 29.8%), ambayo ni kutokana na tathmini bora na matarajio ya wauzaji kwa hali ya biashara ya makampuni ya biashara. Matarajio yao kuhusu maagizo kwa wasambazaji katika kipindi cha miezi mitatu ijayo pia ni chanya. Sababu inayozuia shughuli za biashara kwa kiwango kikubwa zaidi ni ushindani katika tasnia, ikifuatiwa na mazingira ya kiuchumi ya kutokuwa na uhakika, mahitaji ya kutosha na uhaba wa wafanyikazi. Matarajio ya wauzaji reja reja kuhusu kuuza bei katika kipindi cha miezi mitatu ijayo yako katika mwelekeo wa ongezeko.
