A bit more context.... Here is another sentence with the term:
Vi s�ljer mer och mer lojalitetskort, elektroniska presentkort och servicetj�nster.

Here lojalitetskort is business card or calling card.....

business and loyalty

Business covers more areas; in my opinion, trade is often linked more to wholesale/large-scale purchases rather than individual business transactions; business would cover both, I think. Loyalty is definitely correct - there are loyalty cards/schemes all over the place.

fairness or 'being ethical'; loyalty

You don't give much context, but 'lojal konkurrens' is 'fair competition'

'lojal reklam' is ethical, reasonable advertising.

Finally, obviously, there is plain 'loyalty' as in loyal customers who come back to the same supplier because they are satisfied with the goods.

Trade & loyalty

Many firms have so called "loyalty" programs where customer loyalty is rewarded with discounts/bonuses/frequent flyer points etc. In the dearth of more context I can only hazard an educated guess that this is what is being referred to here.

\"Loyalty\" is here another word for customer retention.
