products

Things companies sell

Products are things produced—manufactured goods, agricultural outputs, or the results of any process.

A product of one's environment or upbringing is shaped by those influences.

In mathematics, a product is the result of multiplication.

In business, products are what companies sell, distinguished from services: We're launching three new products this quarter.
