CNR Voice of China Beijing 13d7d Impact 8

China has maintained its position as Africa's largest trading partner for over ten consecutive years, according to Deputy Director Lan Shengbin of the China Customs. According to Chinese customs statistics, China-Africa trade volume reached a new historical high in 2025. The expansion includes moving from simple cultivation to processing, roasting, and packaging to create more jobs. Officials noted that these measures aim to extend industrial chains from planting to processing, roasting, and packaging. The implementation of zero-tariff measures is expected to increase coffee purchase volumes from Kenya to China. Market manager Caroline Giorgio of Otak Company stated the firm plans to use zero-tariff advantages via cross-border e-commerce platforms. The policy is intended to improve price competitiveness for Ethiopian coffee and promote industry standardization.
