Trade and Export

Trade refers to the exchange of goods and services between people, companies, or countries. Export is a specific part of this process, where a country sells its products or services to other countries. Think of export as sending your country's goods abroad for others to buy, boosting the economy. For example, if Japan sells cars to the United States, that is an export for Japan. Trade and exports help countries get access to products they may not produce themselves, promote economic growth, and foster international relationships.
