English term

commercial

English to French Bus/Financial Management Town hall video
Bonjour,

Je traduis les sous-titres d'une réunion ouverte de management d'une entreprise et j'ai peur de faire un contresens sur le terme "commercial".
Il s'agit d'anglais britannique.

Voici plus de contexte:
With xxx focusing on commercial, publication and sheetfed. Why? Because the needs...

S'agit-il de "l'aspect commercial" ou de la publicité (ce dont je doute, car il s'agit d'une entreprise qui vend des imprimantes feuille-à-feuille)? Y a-t-il un terme plus court et plus approprié (limitation des caractères)?

Merci de vos suggestions!

Tony M Feb 6, 2018:
@ Asker All 3 of your terms seem to be qualifying an implied 'printing' —so you'll probably have to handle the expression as a whole, and possibly use some other word like 'filière' etc. to cover the notion of 'sector within the printing industry'.
I'd assume here 'commercial' means B2B printing, rather than the local 'jobbing printer' who works for the general public, and will come under the 'sheet-fed' category.

I read this as relating to the sales aspect
But more context would help
