Apple's China sales rise with electronics consumer subsidy boost, but Huawei threat looms
Apple reported a sales boost in mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan in the June quarter, aided by Beijing's consumer subsidies, following a prolonged decline in the region amid intense competition and weak consumer spending. In the three months ended June 28, Apple's Greater China revenue grew nearly 4.4 per cent year on year, rising to US$15.37 billion from US$14.73 billion, according to the company's latest financial results released on Thursday. CEO Tim Cook attributed the quarterly growth, which followed years of declining sales , partly to the Chinese government's consumer subsidy scheme for electronic products. 'The government has placed certain subsidies that affect some of our products, not all of them, but there are some of them, and I think that had some effect,' Cook said during an earnings call. 'It was the first full quarter of the subsidies playing out.' Shoppers browse products at an Apple store in Beijing.

Launched earlier this year, China's national subsidy programme aims to stimulate consumer spending by offering a 15 per cent subsidy on purchases of smartphones, tablets and smartwatches priced under 6,000 yuan (US$834).

Wildberries launches new analytics, delivery tools for sellers in Kazakhstan
ALMATY, KAZAKHSTAN – Media OutReach Newswire – 26 May 2025 – Wildberries, a leading e-commerce platform in Eurasia, has launched new tools for sellers in Kazakhstan to help boost sales on the marketplace through an AI-based analytics service and to provide greater control over parcel delivery timing to customers. Wildberries has extended its analytics service, called Jam, to sellers in Kazakhstan. The service, which is available by subscription following a free trial period, leverages advanced analytics to provide insights about the seller's current and target audience, product search statistics, sales funnel performance and seasonality, and other key metrics that impact sales. The Jam analytics service also uses an AI neural network to generate and edit images, product descriptions and promo pages to help sellers reach their target audience and convert more product views into sales. In one key feature of the Wildberries neural network, sellers can upload images of a clothing item to produce a photo of the item worn by an AI-generated 'model', thereby saving on potential marketing costs. Wildberries has also started offering Delivery by Seller (DBS) and Express Delivery by Seller (EDBS — within 4 hours) options for sellers in Kazakhstan. These options have proven efficient for sellers who prefer to deliver goods themselves, bypassing Wildberries' warehouses and pickup points. They are particularly suitable for sellers of large furniture and appliances, perishable products, and fresh flowers. Wildberries is actively expanding its operations in Kazakhstan – the largest economy in Central Asia – to meet growing demand for online shopping. Sales by Kazakhstan-based merchants on the Wildberries platform nearly doubled in 2024 with an increase of 99 percent year-on-year. To support this growth, Wildberries doubled its network of pick-up points in the country in 2024 and is currently building logistics centers in the two largest cities, Almaty and Astana.
