Best Answer

The 'colonies' they established were in fact trading stations. This allowed them to trade extensively in local produce and cross-trade between areas as well as just in their own produce of timber, food and dyes.

The exception was their colony Carthage, which grew in strength to establish its own trading colonies in the western Mediterranean.
