Some European goods that were exchanged for African slaves include iron. cotton, gum, and also brass pan. These goods were exchanged for enslaved Africans, who were shipped across the Atlantic Ocean to north and south America and the Caribbean where they set to work on the plantations which constituted large areas of land owned by Europeans colonist where crops were grown.

Europe slave traders would bring along with ships full of cotton, different fabrics like wool, different kinds of metals(copper, iron, zinc,brass and alloy of these metals),guns,glass beads, pots, cutlery and hardwares. These goods are suitable for African Trade.
