  Entrepôt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An entrepôt (French, literally warehouse) is a trading centre, or simply a warehouse, where merchandise can be imported and exported without paying import duties, often at a profit.
This profit is possible because of trade conditions, for example, the reluctance of ships to travel the entire length of a long trading route, and selling to the entrepot instead.
The entrepot then sells at a higher price to ships travelling the other segment of the route.
