commercial dealings

Buying and selling

Commercial dealings are business transactions and negotiations between parties—buying, selling, trading, or contracting for goods and services.

The phrase emphasizes the transactional nature of relationships: Their commercial dealings with the supplier go back decades.

It often appears in legal or formal contexts discussing business conduct or potential conflicts of interest.
