Samsung says to discontinue China sales of some consumer electronics products

SEOUL: Samsung Electronics, a maker of TVs and home appliances, said on Wednesday that it has decided to discontinue sales of some consumer electronics products in mainland China amid intensifying competition in the local market.

“The company will make every effort to minimize ‌any impact ⁠on customers ⁠resulting from this decision, and is reviewing various support measures for business partners,” Samsung said in a statement, following earlier reports in South Korean media about the exit of its TV and home appliance sales in China.
