Hey there! Have you ever bought something online? 📱🛍️ Well, guess what? In the first half of 2025, online shopping in China grew by a whopping 8.5%! That’s a big jump!
Thanks to cool government policies like trade-in deals and special discounts, more people in the Chinese mainland are shopping online than ever before. From January to June, nearly a third (that’s 29.6%) of all the stuff people bought came from online stores. Amazing, right?
Not only that, but China’s digital economy is connecting with the world. They’ve made “Silk Road E-commerce” partnerships with 36 countries, including new friends like Kenya, Bangladesh, and Egypt. 🌍🤝
And there’s more good news! Cross-border e-commerce (that’s buying and selling goods between countries online) also grew. China imported and exported goods worth 1.32 trillion yuan (which is about $184 billion!) in the first half of the year, up 5.7% from last year. That’s a lot of cool stuff crossing borders! 🚢✈️
So, the next time you click “buy” on an online store, remember—you’re part of a big, exciting world of e-commerce that’s growing every day! 🌐💫
