If producers don't sell fast enough, they will have to either lower prices or produce something else. lower prices means retail can lower prices and sell more due to increased demand.
I believe I said this. 
But again, I see no incentive to go into retail unless you produce the good yourself due to everyone else creating the good themselves and then selling it in their own stores. You'd never be able to match market prices. Thus your goods would sell less well. Which is sad since an increase in dedicated retail outfits would rapidly increase demand up the supply chains. Unless I'm missing something? Maybe I'm misreading the information in the store about the "market price"?
Some of my companies run industries which require no stores, I fill those up with stores to sell stuff from B2B, which makes me more money than not having any stores in that company.
Basically as you grow larger you start wanting dedicated companies for certain tasks, I even got 1 for electricity and 1 for water now (Actually bought them out accidentally for practically nothing
), so making use of the slots that arn't needed in that company for something else is always a good idea.
I love Capitalism Plus and Wall Street Raider so this is probably the game for me. I've played other games like this before but I always run into one problem: the long time players have cornered EVERY market making it almost impossible to compete as a small startup. The big boys hardly make any money but their main objective is to stop everyone else from making money. I hope this won't happen here.
After reading this thread I should have gone into the coal making business to sell to you guys. But instead I went into nightstands, there doesnt seem to be any B2B action there and the demand is being met at around 50%. I have build up a 150m2 furniture factory and I did some research. Now I'm building 500 units and they will be ready within the hour.
What do I do with the units? Do I build a furniture store and sell to the NPC? Will that sell reasonably well or will I be stuck with these units for a long time? Maybe I can sell it to one of you guys if anyone has a furniture store.
Building a store to sell them in would be a good idea, very few have stores to sell furniture, only me and maybe 1-2 more people. Don't know how large theirs are though and mine are very new so not any large capacity as with my food stores.
