lol, no idea of what to make of it, but I go along with it

forget all the shipping costs, that is the cheapest part, the biggest problem is the amount of people that will get involved in the cargo, and docking in Japan will be more expensive, real estate is more expensive, and travel costs from dock to shops is more expensive, and to top it off, you have to pay all the handlers, and they are more expensive

I hope it helps

Basically I think everything CoolKevin is true. There are soooo many costs involved, the 1994$ shipping price would only be the tip of the iceberg concerning costs.

Plus, I don’t think wholesalers/ supermarkets would buy bananas for more than a $1 per kg, probably much less.

Unless you want to find someone to operate a banana shop with 20 ton of fresh produce on hand. Which is unlikely.
