The entrepot trade in Hainan refers to the trade activity where the places of production and consumption of goods are not in Hainan, but the goods are transshipped through Hainan. For example, the commodities produced in the Chinese mainland are first transported to Hainan and then transshipped from Hainan to other countries.
Compared with general trade, general trade is directly from the place of production to the place of consumption, while the entrepot trade has an additional intermediate transshipment link.
