China Federation of Logistics & Purchasing released the China Bulk Commodity
Development Report 2026 on June 16. The report says China remains one of the
world’s largest bulk-commodity import markets; crude oil, iron ore and soyabean
imports stayed elevated in 2025, underscoring China’s global absorption
capacity. For 2025–26 it identifies a backdrop of macro pressure, market
divergence and heightened external shocks, alongside stronger trade resilience
and accelerated capacity building, concluding the sector is shifting from scale
expansion to resilience-oriented allocation.
