So according to this article, in theory there will be new trade hubs all over new eden since a lot of people will not be able to get to Jita (or the other 3) as easily.

For those of you who are searching the interwebs and want to know where the major trade hubs are, here is a convenient list that is a WIP(and is updates asap when new info is given). If you have a Trade Hub you want me to put on this list, message me with the title of the fact you want me to add your trade hub suggestion. Please also include why you consider it a trade hub. Thanks! Hope this helps!

First 5 are taken from this website:

Expanded list of trade hubs on my blog.


Hisec Trade hubs:

  • Jita IV - Moon 4 - Caldari Navy Assembly Plant (Main Caldari Trade Hub, Biggest Trade Hub in game)
  • Amarr VIII (Oris) - Emperor Family Academy (Main Amarr Trade Hub)
  • Rens VI - Moon 8 - Brutor Tribe Treasury (Main Minmatar Trade Hub)
  • Dodixie IX - Moon 20 - Federation Navy Assembly Plant (Main Gallente Trade Hub)
  • Hek VIII - Moon 12 - Boundless Creation Factory (Major Minmatar Trade Hub)
  • Tanoo V - Moon 1 - Ammatar Consulate Bureau (Ammatar Region Trade Hub)


  • Lowsec Trade Hubs:
  • Old Man Star VIII - Moon 1 - Quafe Company Warehouse (Fw/Piracy Trade hub in Essence)

  • Nullsec Trade Hubs:

  • (WIP)

  • ~As for a discussion~

  • What are your opinions on what trade hubs will likely spring up? (if you have a good system in mind please EVEmail it to me so I can add it to the list)
  • Opinion on the article?
  • Opinion on supercaps using stargates?
  • How will this effect them?
  • Possible strategy alternatives to blob fleets?

  • I recognize there are a ton of forum posts about this. But from what I can tell, this will be both an amazing change for those who are tired of the impossible size of nullsec empires, and an enraging handicap for those that maintain those huge empires.

    Actually, with the latest industry changes I do believe that ...
    ... tradehubs will cease to excist within the next years ...
    ... and people will suddenly smarten up ...
    ... and start selling locally.

    From what I can tell, many people will not be able to or will not be willing to make the trip all...the...way...

    I didn't say Jita will die. I didn't say "Jita's successors". I said "Jita's grandchildren". Indicating a family enlargement.

    Such things as this aren't planned. They happen.

    Ofc it's speculation lol that's simply for the discussion part. The real purpose of this thread is to make it easier for people to find what trade hubs are closest to them.

    This.

    The fact you can dock and get anything you want in the same station is just too much convenience to give up. Even if you have to pay more for the goods to be hauled it's worth it.
    When buying mods and things there's nothing worse than finding you can't get that one mod to make a ship fit work in a small local market, so buying in bulk and shipping from Jita is just less of a headache.

    True, although it is very likely that for the sake of timing and convenience, those that are doing the hauling from jita are doing so to sell at a lesser trade hub.

    Plus, if you are hauling all...the...way...home... it makes a HUGE target that can be exploited, thus possibly losing everything you just bought. Especially if you are headed to more dangerous areas of space or are traveling through them.

    So it would likely be safer (imo) to buy locally, especially with the new ly limits, even though JF get a 90% decrease, that still may bite some people.

    i dont see much of a change in the markets locations because people will still cart their items to the edge and jump into low or
    empire depending on your direction. For a market to move to Null sec it would only do any good if you are near NPC or else it will
    be like other null sec markets at outpost limited to just those that use that outpost. Low sec market points would be camped
    unless you use the blockade runners to move your good but even then i have seen measures enacted to attempt to stop me so i adjusted my tactics (god forbid if lag or a game freeze hit). What may happen is that some industrialist will stock the edge stations and the nulls will just make their guys build more rather then import their goods to avoid the fatigue on their taxi drivers.

    Jita will absolutely remain as the main trade hub. However new regional and local hubs will pop up.

    I have it on good authority that Hek is Jita's red-headed stepchild.

    Incorrect!!

    Jita is only within 5LY reach of 2 lowsec systems, with MAX skills, that will be perma camped so JF pilots will not use jita with these changes.

    Bye Bye jita

    Conversely, Rens and Hek may well survive and funily enough they are in range of Amamake so PL are sorted.

    Aye, I agree that it is a total ginger nut of a system.

    FWIW I think it'll take a while for Jita to even remotely lose any of it's draw as the main trade hub. There's already a few lower profile trade hubs that, yes, don't trade in the volume of the main regional hubs, but that do tend to shift a fair amount of trade on a daily basis. To find them, all you need to do is check DOTLAN for where there's a concentration of level 4 agents and you're almost guaranteed to find somewhere with an active market.

    I shall look into that. Thanks!

    Question, why level 4 agents? o.O Jc
