ajna Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I know it varies depending where im located. but just wondering if $3.40 wholesale and $5 retail for 2oz air fresheners is reasonable?If I do sell them wholesale I was think the min order should be 30. sound ok? It cost me $1.73 to make them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momtohaley2004 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 General rule of thumb....2 to 2.5 times cost for wholesale and 3-4 times cost for retail depending on location. In this case 1.73 * 2 = 3.461.73 *3 = 5.19I think you are cutting yourself a little short personally. Personally if that was my costs I'd do 3.50 wholesale and 5.25 retail or something like that. All up to you and what your market can bear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajna Posted August 11, 2008 Author Share Posted August 11, 2008 Well, thats what i thought, but my mom, who has her own retail store was telling me it was a little high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momtohaley2004 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Really depends on your market and your area. This may be one of those items you may want to reconsider carrying because you won't be able to price it in the range where you would like.
