China’s exports to the United States continued to slide in September, but the downturn was offset by strong growth in shipments to other markets, such as Africa and the European Union, according to official Chinese customs data.
China’s exports worldwide increased by 8.3 percent in September from the same period last year, outpacing August’s 4.4 percent year-over-year growth, according to figures published by China’s General Administration of Customs on Oct. 13. It represents the fastest growth since March.
