How did the Atlantic slave trade impact the Americas’ role in triangular trade?

The Atlantic slave trade forcibly brought millions of Africans to the Americas, where many were made to work on plantations growing sugar, tobacco, and other export crops. Those crops were shipped from the Americas to Europe as part of triangular trade. Thus, the trade increased the number of enslaved laborers producing goods for export, not factory workers in Europe.
