China’s Trade Map Shifts Inland: Anhui Joins the Trillion‑RMB Club, Driving a New Industrial Geography

Anhui became the first central Chinese province to surpass 1 trillion RMB in annual trade in 2025, joining eight coastal provinces already in that bracket and reflecting a broader geographic rebalancing of China’s export base. The province’s surge is powered by large‑scale manufacturing — notably automobiles, batteries and photovoltaics — industrial revenue growth, and deeper market diversification into ASEAN and Belt‑and‑Road countries.
