China’s exports and imports showed strong growth in the first two months of 2025, according to data released on Thursday. Exports rose by 12% year-over-year, while imports grew by 8%, reflecting steady domestic demand.
The export surge was driven by strong demand for Chinese electronics, machinery, and consumer goods. Analysts attribute the growth to improving global economic conditions and China’s competitive pricing in international markets.
“The data indicates that China’s economy is gaining momentum,” said an economist. “However, challenges such as rising trade tensions and supply chain disruptions could impact future growth.”
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.
