ice cream suppliers image
Q. I love vegan ice cream but $5 for a tiny little box of ice cream is just so expensive! Anyone know of somewhere I can get vegan ice cream for less? Perhaps by buying bulk quantities?
Answer
LOL that's just economics!!!
Supply and demand. There are only so many vegans, so the market is very small. That means also, that the companies can charge what they want, because what are you going to do, NOT buy it? If they are the only supplier they have a natural monopoly.
If there are more than 1 suppliers, than all the companies become "price takers" [oh gasp! I DID learn something in that ECON class!] and EVERY company will charge the same price, again -- because they can.
Show me the money. That's how capitalism works.
