Vasco da Gama's voyages to India significantly boosted the Portuguese spice trade, yielding substantial profits. His first trip in 1497-1499 established a direct sea route to India, allowing Portugal to control the lucrative spice trade. While exact profit figures are difficult to ascertain, it is estimated that the spices he brought back resulted in profits that were many times the initial investment, contributing greatly to Portugal's wealth during the Age of Exploration.
