Posted on May 2, 2012 I mean food prices are still down after the last world event. The fact that cafes have been cut to 2/5 and supermarkets to 1/5 makes both of those pretty much impossible to break into unless you already have giant stores. They're just not very profitable compared to (now) aircraft brokers, toy stores, jewelers and etc.

Posted on May 2, 2012 Giant stores still wouldn't be quite as profitable, considering you need stores that are 3x as big to have the same income level, and then you're spending over 3x as much on overhead.

Posted on May 2, 2012 I still don't understand why stores with a bigger selection are being punished. They're a pain in the butt to stock. :|

Posted on May 2, 2012 food prices are still down after the last eventAs a food wholesaler, I burst out loud laughing at that one...yeah, my wholesale bakery prices went all the way down from 20x base to 13x. That meant that my margins went all the way down from five-digits percent to four-digits percent... With the correction many of my margins are now mid-four-digits percent. Oh no, I'm so unprofitable now, whine whine whine! Scott made a balance correction about a month ago that apparently nobody remembers any more, because everybody but everybody was making jewellery and aircraft. Now he's making another balance correction because everybody's making food. Deal. |
