trade partnerships
Business exchange agreements
Trade partnerships are formal arrangements between countries, regions, or businesses to facilitate commerce under favorable terms.
These agreements typically reduce tariffs, streamline customs procedures, or grant preferential market access: The two nations signed a trade partnership to boost agricultural exports.
The phrase emphasizes mutual benefit and ongoing cooperation rather than one-time transactions.
