How about building a second store and selling everything yourselves?

Maybe we could add options like differentiation prices to different cities in a single sales unit, or an option of buyer/seller paying freight in warehouses?
I would also second this suggestion as I'm also facing the same problem.

My farms always dump supply into warehouses.

Your store can buy directly from the farm (set to internal sale) and your warehouse can sell anything left over.

This also really makes it easy to scale up production if you need to, and you only have to bother setting the warehouse price.

Thats a very good suggestion ! Given the cost to transport to another city, it pretty much does seem like you only have the 2 options at the moment, underutilise or overutilise so your never really efficient with the farms at the moment

Agreed. And/or "Prioritize my companies" in that Client window, so it's a bit more dynamic. That also makes it sound like it would work as a CEO management option.

I have had moderate success using warehouses, but the problem still manifests. Warehouses become the main consumer of products out of the factory. The warehouses can be set to internal sale, but a supply glut still exists.
