China’s biggest shopping event of the year exceeds low expectations

China’s Singles’ Day shopping festival has once again proven to be a success, with consumers spending more than expected in a challenging retail environment, according to consulting executives. The annual event, which is China’s version of Black Friday, started on October 14 and ran until Monday, attracting shoppers with discounts and deals from major e-commerce platforms.

While some multinational corporations have been cautious about the Chinese market, many brands have seen better-than-expected results during this year’s Singles’ Day. Despite overall weak consumer sentiment, companies like Alibaba and JD.com reported growth in gross merchandise value and active buyers. This positive outcome comes amidst a backdrop of stimulus measures announced by the Chinese government, which have helped boost consumer confidence.

Experts have noted a shift in consumer sentiment over the past few weeks, with certain product categories experiencing strong growth. Categories like outdoors, pet care, and blind box toys have seen increased demand, reflecting the dynamic nature of Chinese consumer preferences. Retail sales for October are expected to show improvement, with a 3.8% year-on-year increase projected.

Foreign brands selling online in China have also benefited from the shopping festival, with companies like Vitamix and IS Clinical seeing strong performance. Growth in gross merchandise value has outpaced previous years, indicating a successful Singles’ Day for many brands. Research firm Syntun estimates a 20.1% year-on-year increase in sales, reaching 1.11 trillion yuan ($150 billion) for Alibaba’s Tmall, JD.com, and PDD.

Looking ahead, there are hopes for a consumer spending recovery in 2025, as additional stimulus measures are expected to be announced by the Chinese government. Despite economic challenges, higher-end brands like Lululemon have the potential to thrive in the market. Local brands, known for their competitive pricing and agility, are also expected to continue gaining traction.
