Market Chatter: JD.com Renews Interest in Germany-Based Electronics Retailer Ceconomy

MT Newswires Live

Feb 06, 2025

JD.com (HKG:9618) revived its interest in purchasing Germany-based electronics retail company Ceconomy, Bloomberg News reported Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter.

The Chinese e-commerce giant has already approached Ceconomy itself and its shareholders, the report said, citing the sources.

JD.com has been on the lookout for potential acquisitions to expand itself as it faces a weak Chinese economy. Among the deals it studied was with UK-based electronics retailer Currys, but the deal fell off, the report said.

A Ceconomy spokesperson declined to comment, the news agency said, while a JD.com representative did not respond immediately to queries.
