US-based premium activewear and lifestyle brand Alo stepped up its expansion in China on Wednesday, launching an exclusive flagship store on Tmall while preparing brick-and-mortar stores in cities including Beijing and Shanghai, adding to a growing number of US consumer brands entering or expanding in the Chinese market. 
With Chinese actress Zhao Lusi featured on its homepage, Alo's Tmall flagship store marks its first official sales channel in China and its only official e-commerce channel on the Chinese mainland, giving consumers direct access without relying on overseas agents or cross-border purchases.
Sales on its Tmall store topped 10 million yuan ($1.4 million) within one minute after final payments for preorders opened at 12:30 am, setting a new opening-day sales record for a new brand in Tmall's sports and outdoor category, the Securities Daily reported.
Industry observers attributed Alo's growing appeal in China to the rise of yoga and Pilates, as well as its blend of performance wear and everyday fashion, which resonates with younger consumers and lends itself to social-media-driven lifestyle marketing.
Industry data showed that China's yoga apparel market is projected to reach $2.65 billion in 2026, suggesting significant growth potential despite intensifying competition from established players such as Canada's Lululemon.
Alo is not an isolated case. A growing number of US consumer brands are entering China or deepening their presence, from opening their first stores to expanding retail networks and testing new formats, highlighting the enduring appeal of China's vast market, increasingly sophisticated consumers, and diverse consumption scenarios.
US fast-food chain Five Guys has also expanded its footprint in China, recently entering Beijing with two stores opening simultaneously at Chaoyang Joy City and Xidan Joy City. The launches drew long queues, with waits exceeding two hours during the lunch rush and scalpers reportedly charging up to 100 yuan to hold spots in line, according to media reports.
Five Guys is far from cheap, with a regular burger priced at 70 yuan and even a small order of fries at 32 yuan. But its 16 customizable toppings offer novelty and choice, helping attract Chinese consumers despite the premium pricing.
Meanwhile, Walmart, which has operated in China for 30 years, reflects the continued commitment of long-established multinationals to the Chinese market. 
Walmart has recently opened 20 new community stores in Shenzhen, expanding its presence through a format designed to serve everyday needs in neighborhoods. The company told the Global Times that the format is now expanding beyond Shenzhen, with the first stores in Suzhou and Guangzhou set to open in the second half of the year.
At Walmart China's 30th anniversary event on Wednesday, Walmart China President and CEO Zhu Xiaojing said that the retailer has built an integrated omnichannel network spanning hypermarkets, community stores, Sam's Clubs, front warehouses and distribution centers, with online sales accounting for more than half of its China sales last year.
"We remain confident in the Chinese market and will continue to increase our strategic investment in China," Zhu said, adding that Walmart will further expand its omnichannel presence, deepen community engagement and work with suppliers to strengthen differentiated product offerings, according to The Paper.
The latest corporate moves are also reflected in broader investment data. Actual US investment in China rose 24.5 percent year-on-year in the first four months of 2026, according to China's Ministry of Commerce. More than 3,000 foreign-invested companies increased their investment in China during the period. 
Meanwhile, a 2026 survey by the US-China Business Council found that 95 percent of US companies regarded their China operations as important to remaining globally competitive, underscoring China's continued role in their global business strategies. 
Wang Peng, an associate research fellow at the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times that at a time of sluggish global growth, China offers multinational companies a relatively stable source of revenue, while its mature supply chains, logistics networks and large consumer base allow brands to respond quickly to changing demand.
Wang said that the appeal of the Chinese market has also moved beyond sheer population size. Foreign brands are increasingly drawn to opportunities created by more segmented consumption across different city tiers, age groups and lifestyle categories. China's highly developed digital retail ecosystem, including social-commerce marketing, instant retail and integrated online-offline channels, also gives companies a testing ground for new products and business models.
Despite uncertainties in China-US economic ties, Wang said that companies ultimately make investment decisions based on market demand, growth prospects and competitiveness. For many global consumer brands, pulling back from China would mean giving up a vast customer base and leaving more room for competitors.
。    Sophie 编译 工党删除了由该党账户发布的一条社交媒体帖子，该帖子将警察部长Mark Mitchell称为“雇佣兵”，批评Mitchell过去曾在中东做过私人安保承包商。         此前，工党议员Ginny Andersen曾因一次采访引发争议，她称Mitchell“被雇佣去杀人”，她还问Mitchell在海外工作期间杀过多少人，后来她对此公开道歉。         Advertise with us          昨天早些时候，Papakura工党的Facebook账户引用了一篇Substack平台上的文章，文章使用了一张人工生成的Mitchell的图像，标题为“Mark Mitchell-雇佣兵”。

B |          这篇文章支持了Andersen的观点，并批评Mitchell要求Andersen公开道歉，而不接受她2月21日两人在Newstalk ZB上交锋后不久发出的短信道歉。         工党的帖子说：“这是我们政府一位现任部长的背景？”          在Andersen发表评论后，工党党魁Chris Hipkins表示，他并不同意她所有的说辞，并认为她做得太过火了。         英文《先驱报》联系了工党就这条帖子发表评论。在工党总书记Rob Salmond发表声明前帖子被删除了，声明称帖子是由一名“工党志愿者”发布的，并不反映工党的立场，已经被删除了。         Hipkins昨天在奥克兰参加绿党议员Fa 'anānā Efeso Collins的葬礼，因此无法做出回应。         Mitchell在一份声明中表示，这是工党的问题，但他补充说：“这与该党最近的可憎行为模式相符。”          Mitchell在海外工作了大约8年，工作包括人质谈判、提供援助和后勤服务。他说，只有一次他被迫使用了武器，那是在他负责保护的一个院落被围攻五天期间。

C | Mitchell说，他不知道自己在袭击中是否杀死了任何人。

D |          2017年，Mitchell告诉英文《先驱报》，“雇佣兵”这样的标签让他感到难过。         “我不会改变我所做的任何事情。我……比较骄傲，不是一个喜欢在众人面前夸夸其谈的人——毕竟我是一个新西兰人。但我为给人们的生活带来改变感到自豪，包括保障他们的安全和让人能够继续他们的生活。”          他谈到了他做过的工作，例如与来自海牙的科学家一起打开墓坑，为萨达姆·侯赛因的战争罪审判收集证据。         “当你打开墓坑时，发现婴儿的遗体紧紧地抱着母亲，这清楚地提醒着人们当时发生的暴行。这对每个参与其中的人来说都是一项非常非常艰难的工作。与其质疑我们为什么在那里，不如让我们更坚定地认识到必须做出改变。
