Non-entrepot trade is usually also called direct trade. Direct trade refers to the act that the country of production and the country of consumption of goods do not conduct the buying and selling of goods through a third country. In direct trade, the producer sells the goods directly to the consumer, and both sides conduct transaction consultations, sign contracts, and complete the processes such as goods delivery and payment settlement directly.
For example, a furniture factory in China sells furniture directly to a retailer in the United States without going through the hands of merchants in other countries. This is a typical example of direct trade.
This way of trading can reduce intermediate links, making both the buyer and the seller more autonomous in terms of price, communication, etc. For the production enterprise, it can understand the needs of consumers more directly and adjust the production strategy in a timely manner. For consumers, they may get more favorable prices due to the reduction of intermediate price differences. Direct trade occupies an important position in international trade and promotes the circulation of goods and economic cooperation among countries.

Besides being called direct trade, non-entrepot trade is sometimes also called general trade. General trade mainly refers to the way of customs supervision. Purchasing raw materials in the domestic market for production and then exporting for sale, or directly importing goods for domestic sales are all common forms of general trade.
