The Wholesale Market is a central trading place in each city where goods can be purchased and offered for sale. Each city has its own wholesale market with its own range of goods.

Basics

• Each city has its own wholesale market with local offerings
• At approximately midnight, the stocks of the local traders in the city are replenished
• A smaller delivery occurs every 2 hours
• Local traders only offer Level 0 goods
• Exclusive goods of a city are only offered at the wholesale market of that city

Purchasing Goods

Transport and Logistics

You need your own vehicles to purchase goods. The following applies:

• The capacity of the vehicles must be considered
• Different goods can be transported in the same vehicle if they are going to the same destination
• Only one type of goods can be transported on one pallet
• Example: A transporter with a capacity of 2 pallets can either:
  • Transport one pallet each of two different goods
  • Or two pallets of the same good

Procedure for Multiple Goods

How to transport multiple goods with one vehicle: 1. Do not enter a shipping destination when loading 2. The vehicle will be "parked" and can be loaded further 3. After completing the purchase, send the vehicle to the desired building
