Hong Kong's GDP Is Similar to the Annual Revenue of Apple

Hong Kong is a wealthy city. Saying so is quite the understatement. Recording a nominal GDP per capita of 53,606 US dollars, the city ranks 19th in the world, alongside countries such as the United Arab Emirates, Israel, Germany, and the United Kingdom; all of which are known for their high standards of living.

In fact, in 2025, Hong Kong recorded a total nominal GDP of 3,331,800,000,000 Hong Kong dollars, which equates to 425 billion US dollars. Quite astonishingly, this figure is slightly higher than the 416.16 billion US dollars revenue recorded by Apple in the same year.

Bearing in mind the very high standards of living in Hong Kong, it is quite mesmerizing to realize that Apple is, in fact, as wealthy as a city such as Hong Kong; and this goes to show the economic powerhouse Apple has become over the decades.

To put this number in perspective, if Apple’s annual revenue were to be compared with the nominal GDPs of countries around the world, it would be ranked in 39th place.
