At a time when the world is affected by COVID-19, China is currently the only economy that has the epidemic under control and is functioning well. When supplying crane products such as gantry cranes to the UK, we can have the advantage of timeliness while ensuring quality. Let's look at a set of official data from the UK to demonstrate the UK's dependence on Chinese goods
According to the "Daily Telegraph", about one-seventh of the total British imports in 2021 will come from China, showing that the United Kingdom is very dependent on Chinese goods.
In the year to Q3 2021, China-UK trade in goods and services (exports plus imports) totaled £94.5 billion, an increase of 13.5%, or £11.2 billion, over the previous cycle (Q4 2019 to Q3 2020) .
This total trade volume makes China the UK's third largest trading partner, accounting for 7.5% of the UK's total trade volume.
Of this £94.5bn trade volume, UK exports to China totalled £26.1bn (down 18.6% or £6bn compared to the previous cycle) and imports from China totalled £68.5bn (compared to the previous cycle Cycle-by-cycle, an increase of 33.5%, or £17.2 billion).
This means that the UK's trade deficit with China is as high as £42.4 billion, an increase from the previous cycle (trade deficit was £19.3 billion), indicating that the UK market is more dependent on goods or services from China.
In addition to reviewing the past year, the report also cites data from the UK Office for National Statistics (ONS) from 2011 to 2020, which clearly depicts the changing trend of Sino-UK trade over the past decade.
It is not difficult to find that the total trade volume between China and the UK has generally shown a steady upward trend in the past ten years. The UK's trade deficit with China has remained stable, but it has expanded significantly in 2020 due to the impact of the epidemic.
The data shows that over the past year, the top five items exported from the UK to China were:
Crude oil (£3.9bn, 21.0% of UK exports to China)
Cars (£3.6bn, 19.3%)
Pharmaceutical products (£1.5bn, 7.9%)
Non-ferrous metals (£1.3bn, 6.9%)
Scientific instruments (£676.2m, 3.6%)
The top five commodities the UK imports from China are:
Telecommunications and audio equipment (£7.3bn, 11.3% of UK imports from China)
Office equipment (£7.3bn, 11.2%)
Other consumer goods manufacturing (£5.2bn, 8.1%)
Clothing (£4.6bn, 7.2%)
Other chemicals (£4bn, 6.1%)
