Get in touch with us nowThe share of extra-EU exports - that is, exports from EU countries to non-EU countries - that go to China tripled over the period from 2002 to 2022. China's development as a key export market accelerated particularly quickly following the global recession of 2009, as China's growing middle classes propped up global consumer demand. While China's share of extra-EU exports increased consistently up until 2020, it has dropped for two consecutive years in 2021 and 2022, falling by 1.5%. Nevertheless, the absolute value of EU exports to China has continued to rise.
