According to a report by China National Radio on February 18th, 2025, China's electronic information manufacturing industry demonstrated robust growth momentum in 2024, with both mobile phone production and exports seeing double-digit increases. Statistics show that the total annual production of mobile phones reached 1.67 billion units, a year-on-year increase of 7.8%, while smartphone production hit 1.25 billion units, up 8.2% compared to the previous year.
Platform data shows that business opportunities in the European, Oceanian, and South American markets increased by 69.8%, 55.7%, and 40% respectively on a year-on-year basis, ranking them as the top three regions with the highest growth rates. Markets in Southeast Asia, Africa, North America, and others are also following closely with sustained high growth.
In the European market, year-on-year growth rates of business opportunities in sectors such as manufacturing and processing machinery, pharmaceuticals and healthcare, industrial equipment and components, construction and decorative materials, and consumer electronics all exceeded 85%. In Oceania, business opportunities in the sports and fitness, leisure and entertainment, and light industrial goods sectors doubled. Notably significant growth rates in business opportunities were observed in the transportation, furniture, packaging and printing, and apparel accessories sectors in the South American market.
Zhang Zhen, the foreign trade manager of Qinhuangdao Tongyu Building Materials, a platform member company, said, "We have already closed three deals in the new year, and our factory is overwhelmed with work! We just shipped a container to a Middle Eastern client who has placed two additional orders; last year's European client confirmed quantities and prices, and an old client placed orders for two containers. With these three clients placing orders simultaneously, our factory is incredibly busy."
Good news about orders is also frequently reported from the South American market. Li Dengyan, the foreign trade manager of Dongguan Haowei Precision Molds, explained, "On the third day back to work in the new year, an old client from Brazil decided to add an order for three sets of molds, with a total value of 170,000 RMB. This client visited our factory last year and ordered six sets of molds. The arrival of this second order so quickly is a great start for 2025."
The bustling production lines and the influx of orders fully attest to the recovery of global market demand and the efficient response capability of Chinese enterprises, which also benefits from MIC International's precise layout and continuous investment in the global market.
At the beginning of the new spring, MIC International is carrying out its "2025 Offline Promotion Plan" with the theme of "Exhibiting Global Business Opportunities" in an orderly manner. Throughout the year, the platform will collaborate with over 50 overseas chambers of commerce to organize hundreds of exhibitions and business matchmaking events. It will also increase offline promotion efforts in high-growth emerging markets, focusing particularly on industries such as industrial machinery, light industry, home furnishings, and gift sectors.
The "Special Exhibition" event of MIC International in 2025 is set to be officially launched on February 20th. It is reported that the "Special Exhibition" event in 2024 achieved an impressive 96% intention-to-repurchase rate. By integrating professional exhibition displays, market inspections, industry exchanges, buyer negotiations, and a series of business services, it provided a new market expansion experience for a large number of Chinese foreign trade enterprises, with both the outcomes and services receiving widespread acclaim from participating companies.
In addition, to gear up for the approaching spring purchasing peak season, MIC International is meticulously preparing its annual platform-wide comprehensive sales and promotion event, the "2025 Super Export Season." The platform will utilize an integrated promotion mechanism across all channels and dimensions, employing various online and offline traffic-driving formats to expand its reach and facilitate business opportunities.
It is reported that the "2025 Super Export Season" will officially kick off on April 1st. Industry insiders believe that, amidst a complex and ever-changing global trade environment, MIC International's high growth rate and diversified layout not only open up new market opportunities for Chinese companies but also provide more high-quality products made in China to global buyers. Focus Technology has stated that in 2025, the company will continue to invest in core capability building, maintain its keen insight into industry development trends, and actively utilize cutting-edge technologies such as AI and big data, driven by innovation. The aim is to support Chinese foreign trade enterprises in achieving global expansion and to promote the advancement of Made in China products worldwide.
