意味（1）

(marketing) An item that is sold at or below cost in an effort to stimulate other profitable sales.

Sugar was a strategic product in the scheme; in part, because it was the chief source of ‘disturbance’ in the wholesale and retail trades owing to its use as what would now be called a ‘loss leader’, and, in part, because on the supply side the industry was dominated by one refiner behind a substantial tariff wall, thereby facilitating ‘stabilised’ pricing.
