Inflation Edges Up as Consumer Prices Rise Gradually

The Central Statistical Office reported a slight inflation increase for November 2025, noting a 0.5% rise in the consumer price index, a slight increase from the 0.4% in October. This indicates that consumers paid a bit more for everyday items, reflecting a slow, steady price increase. The rise was primarily driven by increased food and non-alcoholic beverage prices, which went up by 0.4%. The items contributing most to the increase included tomatoes, cucumbers, fresh carite, garlic, cheddar cheese, melon, and instant coffee. However, lower prices for fresh whole chicken, Irish potatoes, ochroes, onions, and other locally produced items and pastries partially offset these increases. Outside of the food category, alcoholic beverages and tobacco saw a significant 21.2% increase, while clothing, footwear, and health sectors reported minor declines.
