According to domestic media reports, Shen Qiuping, Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Commerce, stated that the Ministry of Commerce, together with relevant departments, will introduce a new batch of policies in the consumer sector. For example, in the near future, research will be conducted to promote the first-sale economy, promote the high-quality development of the wholesale and retail trade industry, support the establishment of pilot projects for modern commercial circulation systems in 20 cities including Shanghai and Tianjin, launch pilot reforms in automobile circulation consumption, promote special actions for healthy consumption, and other policies.

Five cities will also introduce supporting policies. For example, Shanghai and Guangzhou will introduce policies to support and incentivize the opening of first stores, first sales, and first exhibitions; Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, and Chongqing will issue dining, cultural tourism, sports, and other service consumption vouchers. These policy measures will overlap with consumer month activities to bring real benefits to consumers.
