Domestic Sales of Refrigerators and Freezers Under Pressure in 2025

Published: Feb 11, 2026 13:42
The domestic sales market for refrigerators and freezers in China experienced a volatile trend in 2025. Due to pressure from the high base of the previous year, coupled with factors such as overdrawn demand and weak end-use consumption, the total annual domestic sales volume reached 58.27 million units, down 2.7% YoY. Among them, refrigerator products performed slightly better than freezers, aided by the continuation of the trade-in policy.
