Uganda's Consumer Price Index (CPI) experienced a notable decrease in October 2025, marking a decline to 3.4% from September’s 4.0%. This new figure comes as a year-over-year comparison to the same month in 2024, highlighting a considerable slowdown in consumer price inflation.

The data, updated on October 31, 2025, underscores an encouraging trend for Uganda’s economy as inflationary pressures ease. This shift could provide relief to consumers in the country, where the cost of living has been a prevailing concern. The decline is significant, considering the global economic uncertainties that have often influenced inflation rates in the region.

This year-over-year comparison reveals that Uganda’s economic strategies may be steering inflation in a favorable direction, prompting optimism for stakeholders and policy-makers aiming to sustain this downward trend. While this positive momentum is a step forward, continued vigilance is necessary to ensure economic stability amid global economic shifts.
