It helps save the environment from harmful gases being leaked into the atmosphere and also provides countries with a better marketing power.

3) Promotes Efficiency in Production:

International trade promotes efficiency in production as countries will try to adopt better methods of production to keep costs down in order to remain competitive. Countries that can produce a product at me lowest possible cost will be able to gain larger share in the market.

International trade helps generate more employment through the establishment of newer industries to cater to the demands of various countries. This will help countries to bring-down their unemployment rates.

6) Reduces Trade Fluctuations:

By making the size of the market large with large supplies and extensive demand international trade reduces trade fluctuations. The prices of goods tend to remain more stable.

7) Utilization of Surplus Produce:

International trade enables different countries to sell their surplus products to other countries and earn foreign exchange.

8) Fosters Peace and Goodwill:
