In the first four months of 2020, exports of Dutch-manufactured goods to China rose by 500 million euros to a total of 3.5 billion euros. This is 16 percent up on the same period in 2019. Last year, domestic exports to China were worth 9.8 billion euros. This is evident from new figures on goods trade as reported by Statistics Netherlands (CBS) and the latest edition of its Internationalisation Monitor, which focuses on the bilateral trade relationship with China.
In the period January - April 2020, pork exports to China more than doubled to 334 million euros. This growth was related to outbreaks of swine fever in Asia in 2019; China’s domestic pork production collapsed as a result, while its demand for pigmeat from the rest of the world surged.
