Increasing tariffs, shifting supply chains, and ongoing tensions in trade are reshaping China’s logistics sector. According to Savills’ 2025 report, vacancy rates in Shanghai have reached 29,3 percent and in Shenzhen, 9.2 percent. Despite the disruptions, structural shifts continue to drive demand, driven by cross-border ecommerce, favorable government policies, as well as a pivot towards smarter, more resilient logistic networks.
In 2024, online retail sales of consumer products will reach RMB 15.5 trillion ($2.2 billion), nearly quadrupling in the last decade. This is due to strong domestic consumption and e-commerce’s continued growth. China’s cross border e-commerce sector has reached a record RMB 26 trillion ($365.1billion) in import and exported value, highlighting logistics’ critical role in maintaining momentum in the world’s second largest economy.
