A recent survey highlights the struggles of German businesses operating in the stock market today. Over half report grappling with price pressures and weak demand in an increasingly cutthroat market. The biggest obstacle for 42 percent of firms is finding a reliable Chinese partner, while 27 percent cite a lack of trust as a major concern.
German companies in China are adapting to a more demanding market by investing in local partnerships and production. The shift reflects both the challenges of competition and the need to align with China's evolving economic landscape. Many firms remain cautious but see long-term opportunities in staying engaged with the market.
