China’s exports jumped by 12% in the first two months of 2025, according to data released on Thursday. Imports also showed steady growth, increasing by 8%, reflecting strong domestic demand.
The export surge was driven by strong demand for Chinese electronics, machinery, and consumer goods. Analysts credit China’s competitive pricing and improving global economic conditions for the growth.
“The data reflects China’s resilience in global trade,” said an economist. “However, challenges such as trade tensions and supply chain disruptions remain.”
The trade surplus for January-February stood at 125 billion, up from 110 billion in the same period last year. The figures highlight China’s continued dominance in global trade, despite ongoing geopolitical challenges.
