China’s Export Trend 2024
China has the largest bicycle market in the world and is also the largest bicycle producer. Each year, China’s bicycle exports account for approximately 60% of the global bicycle trade.
Before 2022, China exported over 50 million bicycles annually. However, in 2022, due to a peak in global inventory accumulation, export figures dramatically dropped to 41.74 million units. In 2023, China’s bicycle exports continued to decline to 39.648 million units, reaching a historic low.
However, there is a noticeable trend of recovery in these figures. In the first quarter of 2024, China’s bicycle exports reached 10.999 million units, a 13.7% increase compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. From January to August 2024, China exported 31.71 million bicycles, which is an increase of 5.39 million units year-on-year, representing a growth of 21.1% compared to the same period in 2023.
