In the beginning, companies at lower levels cannot put in long overnight orders. Build time will increase as you gain levels. As with all good common business sense, as long as you are making a profit, you’re on the right track.
...
Retail Buildings
Check out what you can sell in the grocery store by clicking on the building and which of the products have the highest demand.
...
You don't need to pay too much attention to the average price - that's just information about what others are selling at. The demand is important because it determines how fast you sell and, essentially, what will be your per-unit profit. Let's assume that apples are high in demand right now.

Gaining Experience
You gain experience points while buildings are working; to level up fast, keep your buildings busy.
...
On top of the variety of production and retail buildings, there are 3 fixed buildings that you cannot upgrade, destroy or move: Headquarters (HQ), Warehouse, and Exchange.
...

Building Upgrades
Constructing new buildings is how your company grows and adds value. Each building allows you to produce different items or to sell items that are produced.
...
Note: Buildings that are level 1 and level 2 will return all construction materials. Any building level 3+ you begin to lose your construction materials. (For more about this see Construction Industry Guide.)
...
Headquarters (HQ)
...
The Headquarters building is the one with your name on it in the center of the Map. It contains all of your financial information. In it, you can keep track of your Company Value (CV), cash flow and transactions. You will also receive a daily update on your Income Statement. As you level up, Bonds (level 10) and Executives (level 15) will be unlocked.
...
Warehouse
...
The Warehouse is where you can find your inventory and details on them. Clicking on one of the items in storage will show the cost details for that item - breaking down the labor, admin and component costs. You can also choose to put up a batch of goods on the exchange, send contracts, display them on your profile, or block it to prevent unintended usage. You also can see the first 5 market orders, and any recent transactions you have made.
...
Note: You do not need Transport units to sell in Retail buildings.
...
Exchange
...
The Exchange is the common place where buyers and sellers trade for goods.
...
The screenshot below is what a beginning player will see for apples. As you grow and get a good CFO, you’ll see information in the Profit Calculator too.

HOW TO READ THE ENCYCLOPEDIA LISTINGHow to Read the Encyclopedia Listing:
At the top, you’ll see the requirements to build/grow items. In this case, 3 water and 1 seed is required for every apple. 100 apples would require 300 water and 100 seeds.
...
The Chart shows retail price and volume history. In this case the demand for apples has been very steady, but the retail price has bounced between around $4 to $4.30.
