"commercial" is generic and "trade" specific

commerce and trade are "almost" interchangeable these days but there is a difference

business or trade operations


Explanation:
When the text refers to "la entrada de operación ... del proyecto" , it is probably speaking about an investment project that is going into its "operational phase" (i.e. opening its doors as a business). Its operations may be merely corporate, hence the term "mercantil", or could also involve clients/suppliers and purchase/sale of goods or services ("trade"), hence the term "comercial".

Example sentence(s):
  • a period since the project starts business or trade operations
