Goods Exchange

Goods exchange is a process where individuals or businesses trade items directly with one another, often without using money. It involves swapping products or services that are valuable to both parties, based on mutual agreement. For example, a farmer might trade vegetables for some carpentry work. This type of trading relies on the perceived value of the exchanged goods, and it can occur informally between neighbors or formally through organized barter systems. Goods exchange helps fulfill needs without cash, promotes resource sharing, and can be an efficient way to obtain items or services when monetary transactions are less practical.
