China not only remains the most attractive consumer market for export growth, but it is also a future lab for all UK brands aspiring to innovate in consumer marketing, AI integration and customer engagement. Given the size of its consumer base and the active participation of Chinese consumers in the development of new products, services and technologies, what the Chinese market does has tremendous implications for UK companies\u2019 own strategies for growth.<\/p>\n

CBBC has announced a programme of activities to help UK companies make the most of this opportunity in 2024.<\/p>\n

1 February: Meet China\u2019s Premier Retailer Matro<\/a><\/h4>\n

China is the world\u2019s second-largest luxury market, and despite headwinds, the prospects for luxury in China in 2024 are looking bright. For luxury brands entering the Chinese market, having a good retail partner is essential. Like Selfridges and John Lewis in the UK, Matro plays a very influential role in the Chinese retail rector. It operates two large high-end luxury stores in Suzhou, as well as \u201cBoundless Matro”, a cross-border online-offline business platform for premium consumer products and international brands. On 1 February, CBBC will host Matro and offer CBBC members the chance to meet their business development team one to one.<\/p>\n

8 February: China Consumer Scotland 2024<\/a><\/h4>\n

Since 1996, Scotland\u2019s total exports of goods to China have grown by more than 1,000% to \u00a31 billion per year. Chinese consumers already have an appetite for Scottish products and brands, including whisky, textiles, seafood and tourism, and this appetite is only expected to grow. At China Consumer Scotland 2024 on 8 February, CBBC will bring together successful Scottish consumer brands and Chinese importers and retailers to share their tips for market entry and growth with brands looking to grow their sales to Chinese consumers.<\/p>\n
