The trade route from New England to West Africa to the West Indies and back to New England is known as the Triangular Trade. This system involved the exchange of goods and enslaved people, where New England merchants would trade rum and other products for enslaved Africans in West Africa, then transport them to the West Indies to work on sugar plantations. The profits from sugar and molasses were then used to purchase more rum and goods, completing the triangle.
