因地利之便，西營盤曾是興旺非常的貿易港口，造就多個傳統行業聚結於此，例如茶商、為華人提供主要糧食的米倉和鹹魚欄，還有經商內地華南的南北行。而繁盛的商業活動亦吸引大量勞動人口於此聚居和工作，因此除大街上的大型倉庫和公司以外，橫街巷里更衍生出各有特色的平民手工業和生活小店。
Because of its convenient location, Sai Ying Pun was once a very vibrant trading port and a lot of traditional industries used to gather here. Among them were rice godowns and salted fish stalls, the main food suppliers for the Chinese; tea merchants; and also Nam Pak Hong, which traded goods between China and South-East Asia. The brisk commercial activities in the area attracted a lot of people to live and work here. As a result, various handicraft industries and grocery stores sprang into existence on the streets and lanes, as well as large-scale warehouses and company offices on the main streets.
