BEIJING - Brazil is making efforts to diversify its exports to China to increase bilateral trade, aiming at becoming the country's largest global trading partner, a senior Brazilian official said on Monday.

The South American nation wants to export not only raw materials, but also high-end consumer products to China, said Alessandro Teixeira, deputy minister of development, industry and foreign trade.

"Besides agricultural products and minerals, we plan to increase the export of high-value-added products, including clothes, cosmetics, shoes, gold and jewelry, to China this year," he said.
