Brazil’s beef exports to China more than doubled in 2022

The value of beef exports from Brazil to China more than doubled in 2022. They went from US$3.906 billion in 2021 to US$ 7.950 billion in 2022.

The data are from the Ministry of Industry, Trade, and Services Development.

Protein is an important product in Brazil’s international trade. Brazil sold US$11.81 billion of “fresh, chilled, or frozen beef” to the world. Exports to China alone account for 67%.

In January 2023 alone, the sale of protein to China totaled US$483.3 million.

The amount exceeds what was exported to the second-largest destination of Brazilian beef, the United States, in all of 2022.
