Global trade dynamics are evolving with major shifts in commodity licences and environmental-finance initiatives. On November 8, 2025, several developments emerged that exporters, importers and trade-consultants should monitor closely.
At EximHub, we track these changes so that SMEs, exporters and importers can adapt and strategize. Below is the curated round-up of today’s major trade-news items.

The People’s Republic of China announced it has restored import licences for U.S. firms (including CHS, Louis Dreyfus and EGT) for soybeans, and will lift its suspension on U.S. log imports starting November 10. These steps follow developments in U.S.–China trade diplomacy.
Why it matters:
- For U.S. agricultural exporters, this signals renewed access and easing of unilateral restrictions.
- For businesses globally, shifts in Chinese import-licence policy may affect sourcing and competition.
