A suggestion is oppening a Well, Mine and Plantation Business. They're the best hit.

If you're looking for high profits per unit, pick computers, motorcycles or cars. However, even with each unit worth more, you'll produce less units in a given time than in other activities.

-

A good practice is to rather work with profits per hour (combining the profit per unit with the hourly production, which you can look up on Kapitools).

In this perspective, the jewelry buisness, specifically gold watches, diamond rings and golden necklaces are the most profitable (between 20 000 and 32 000 profit per hour, with only 20m

i think jeans pullovers and leather gloves are good also...............
I was originally interested in the jeans industry. Before doing tons of calculations, it's the product that appealed to me and sounded fun to produce out of pure personal tastes, and made me want to actually play the game.

However:
Jeans are worth 311 in france, and 250 in germany, in NPC stores. We'll say 275ish average.

To make them, you need 3 textiles, and 300k power. 3 textiles alone already cost 120x3 = 360 kapis to make. So it's better to sell your textiles (to the leather jackets industry) than to make jeans out of them. If you make jeans out them, you loose money. Because you take 360+ kapis of raw mats, and make a finished product worth 275 out of them.

-

Likewise, you need to consider 1 textile worth at least 120+ kapis in raw mats alone, because they take 3 cotton (and some power) to manufacture, and you can easily sell the cotton at 40 per unit. If you consider textiles worth less than 120/130, you do, again, loose money compared to selling the cotton directly rather than making textiles out of it.

It's a bit silly, but the fact leather jackets, oil, and wardrobes are so profitable, means they also dictate the price on the player market of all raw mats involved in their production chain. This effectively locks some product branches, which could otherwise be profitable. Jeans is unfortunately one of them.

Just Jewelry and TV's
Or the Auto industry but you are better off selling the steel itself rather than making it into cars or motorbikes

Jewlery and car business need a lot of money to invest before it become really profitable. I have to know it, I am in these two branches. Selling these products to others just makes you loose money so stores are a must. But these items take long to sell so big stores are must. And big stores means big investition.

Tvs are doing well. For example I can make nice profit even though I buy all inputs. But these days it is hard to find enough plastics for TVs production........

high quality gas sells for 10x production cost or even higher. Like you can sell Q15 gas (costs 3c to make) for 40c
