Pricing & Port Imports FAQ
How does the Port Import Price Index work in Big Ambitions?
1.0 represents the neutral baseline cost of importing sea freight containers at the Port of New York. When the index drops below 0.85 (e.g. 0.75–0.80), order bulk shipments to your warehouse to capture up to 30% cost savings.
What should I do when the Import Index hits 1.4?
A 1.4 index means you are paying a 40% surcharge penalty. Freeze international purchasing and supply your retail shops exclusively from existing warehouse stockpiles until prices drop.
What is the difference between Cheap and Expensive Flowers?
Cheap flowers sell in high volume with low storage space per crate. Expensive flowers (Roses) have high profit per sale ($40+ margin) but take up significantly more storage room in your backroom.
