Olympic
Bid Victory Promotes Consumerism in China
(2001.08.16)
Beijing's
successful Olympic bid, in combination with surges in the catering service and retail
sales during the summer season, helped boost China's retail sales volume by 9.8 percent
year-on-year to 285.14 billion yuan in July, official statistics showed.
According to the figures released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) Wednesday,
urban retail sales reached 180.39 billion yuan in July, increasing 11.4 percent over the
same period of last year. Retail sales in rural areas grew 7.2 percent year-on- year to
104.75 billion yuan. The growth rate of retail sales in urban areas was 4.2 percentage
points higher than that in rural areas.
NBS statistics showed that sales of the catering service reached to 33.71 billion yuan, up
16.8 percent over one year ago. Sales of the wholesale and retail trade industry grew 10.5
percent year-on-year to 192.55 billion yuan. Retail sales of other industries increased
4.1 percent year-on-year to 58.88 billion yuan. |
