Definition
货物 (huò wù) is a general term for 'goods, cargo, merchandise', often used for bulk items in transport or commerce. It is broader than 商品 (shāng pǐn), which refers specifically to goods for sale, and 产品 (chǎn pǐn), which means manufactured products. 货 (huò) is a shorter, more colloquial form used in compounds like 货车 (truck) or 进货 (restock).
