Chinese retailers seek overseas growth amid weak domestic sales
Chinese retail brands are increasingly looking toward international markets to find growth as domestic sales figures show stagnation. Recent reports indicate that retail sales in China have been skidding close to zero growth.
China’s National Bureau of Statistics, which utilizes approximately 100,000 staff to manage the country’s vast economic data and informal sector, has been tracking these metrics. The difficulty in quantifying economic direction in such a large economy remains a significant challenge for data collection.
