💡 Significant share: Today around 8% of China's exports already consist of e-commerce goods.
💡 Rapid growth: China is already the global leader when it comes to e-commerce, as 60% of its population go online for shopping. Cross-border e-commerce between China and Europe is also surging and could reach USD 500bn in value in 2025.
💡 New policies: China has issued draft regulations which aim to encourage the development of overseas warehouses and expand cross-border e-commerce businesses. Although Chinese companies will need to navigate tighter regulations, Western Europe is a large consumer market and leaves plenty of room for expansion: Online shopping accounts for 16% of retail spending in Western Europe compared to 37% in China.
