Summary
Supermarket Simulatoris fast becoming a major hit with simulator fans. Since its launch, it has received overwhelmingly popular reviews from most of its player base. Although the game may seem rather simple on the surface, it is actually a rather complex game with lots of mechanics working away in the background.
When starting out for the first time, it can be difficult to know what the best strategies are. This is especially true when it comes to selecting which items to stock first. Starting off by selling the best possible products gives the player the best possible chance at long-term success inrunning their virtual store.
7Bread
An Item That Is Simple, Cheap, And It Sells Well
Bread will always sell well. A box of 12 loaves costs $11.88, which works out at $0.99 per loaf. Buying two boxes at the very start is a good way to generate some early-game income. When it comes to selling, price items to the nearest dollar. That way, it is easier to give change without having to spend timeworking out the math.
In the beginning, it’s worth keeping prices relatively close to the market price. That way, customers are more likely to spend money. Purchasing two boxes of bread will cost $23.76. Selling each loaf at $4.00 (4 cents above the standard market price) will bring in $96.00 when both boxes are sold.Since bread is usually a quick seller, it won’t take long for the money to start rolling in.
6Flour
Not Much Profit, But An Item That Can Sell Fast
Flour is a good one to have early on. It is the cheapest item available in the beginning, at just $6.32 for a box of 8. This works out at $0.79 per bag. Selling it at $3.50 (21 cents cheaper than the standard market price)will bring in $28.00 per box sold.
Since it’s cheap, it’s very affordable from day one, which makes it a good item to stock alongside bread. Customers tend to prefer purchasing two different products rather than one item alone. So, having variety, even if it’s just two items, is the best way to go about things.
5Oil
More Expensive But More Profitable For Players
Oil is available from the start inSupermarket Simulator.Just like in real life, oil is a product that customers buy fairly regularly. It costs $18.00 to buy a box of 12. The standard market price per bottle is $4.50, which is a round number, so it’s easier to calculate change.
Selling a box of oil at $4.50 per bottle will bring in $54.00.By selling this product at market price, it will also sell fast. Oil is a great item to sell to bring in money for purchasing a product license.

4Cereal
An Expensive Item, But It Sells Well
Cereal is the mostexpensive item available for purchasefrom day one. It costs $35.88 for a box of 12. This works out at $2.99 per box. While it is costly, it can be sold for a decent amount of profit. The standard market price is $5.98. Rounded up, that’s $6.00 per box sold.
Selling a case of cereal will bring in $72.00,which is a fairly large amount of money in the beginning. Selling this product alongside oil is a fast way to earn enough to buy the cheapest product license for $200.
3Dark Roast Coffee
An Item That Sells Well, For A Good Profit
Dark roast coffee is available after purchasing the $200 product license. It is a fairly costly item early on, at $55.92 for a box of 8. While it is costly, unlike a lot of the products in the first product license, it doesn’t need to be refrigerated. Since the refrigerator costs quite a lot, it’s better to try and stick with the items that don’t need to be chilled.
The standard market price for dark roast coffee is $10.48.By rounding the price to $10.50, the player can bring in $84.00 per 8 bags of coffee sold.

2Cheese
A Refrigerator Is Required But Sells Very Well
Cheese needs to be refrigerated before it can be sold.This means investing in a refrigerator for $200.While that is a hefty investment, cheese is a very profitable and popular item. It costs $16.11 for 9 packs of cheese. This works out at $1.79 per pack.
The standard market value for cheese is $3.40. Rounding up to $3.50 will bring in $31.50 for every box of 9 sold. Cheese seems to be a quick seller. So, although it isn’t themost profitable, it will sell pretty quickly.

1Milk
Not A Lot Of Profit, But Flies Off The Shelves
Just like in the previous entry, milk needs to be refrigerated. While there isn’t a lot of profit to be made from milk, it isa good seller.It costs $12.00 to buy a box of 16. This works out at $0.75 per milk carton.
The standard market price is $2.40, but selling it at $2.50 is better for working out the customer’s change.While it is unlikely that milk will bring in a lot of money,it is a quick seller, making it a great item to stock in the refrigerator.
