Myanmar Construction Industry Report 2025 | Output to Grow by 2.3% in Real-terms This Year, Driven by Developments in Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, and Increase in FDI - Forecast to 2029 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Myanmar Construction Market Size, Trends, and Forecasts by Sector - Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, Institutional and Residential Market Analysis to 2029 (H1 2025)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Myanmar's construction industry is projected to grow by 2.3% in real terms in 2025. This will be driven by development in the infrastructure, and energy and utilities project developments, alongside an increase in foreign direct investment (FDI).

According to the Directorate of Investment and Company Administration (DICA), Myanmar secured MMK1.8 trillion ($690.2 million) in FDI for the financial year (FY) 2024-25 (from April 1, 2024, to March 31, 2025), with the Myanmar Investment Commission approving 60 foreign-invested enterprises.

During this period, the oil and gas industry attracted the highest FDI, totaling MMK924.5 billion ($357 million), followed by the manufacturing sector at MMK473.1 billion ($182.7 million), and the transport and communication sector at MMK227.1 billion ($87.7 million). Similarly, the reconstruction activity by the government after the devastating earthquake in March 2025 will also support the development of construction activity in the country. In March 2025, the Chinese government pledged MMK354.8 billion ($137 million) in humanitarian aid to fund the reconstruction of homes.

Over the remainder of the forecasted period, from 2026 to 2029, the construction industry is expected to register an annual average growth of 3.9%, supported by investments in renewable energy, infrastructure projects, and manufacturing activities. In May 2025, Myanmar's government and Russia signed an MMK57.2 trillion ($60 billion) agreement to cooperate on investments in the Dawei Special Economic Zone to develop a deep-sea port and an industrial estate in Dawei, located on the western Andaman Sea Coast in the Tanintharyi region of Myanmar.

This initiative encompasses the construction of a deep-sea port, a 196km industrial estate, a four-lane road, and a railway line leading to the special economic zone and will be implemented in phases by 2028.
