This is an incomplete list of commodities and cargo items found in the game. The prices are reflective of the Common Trade Route listed. While there may be higher or lower prices in certain systems these are found to be the most profitable and most efficient based on the time it takes per run. Please take the time to profit ratio into account before posting recommendations.

Items listed as Perishable and Highly Perishable degrade over time. If you are carrying these items you will notice a slowly decreasing bar under the icon. This shows the spoilage of one unit of cargo. When the bar reaches zero one unit will be deducted form your cargo and the bar will fill again for the next unit of cargo. During a normal run (For example New London to Denver or Kurile to Cambridge) you can expect to lose about 10 units of cargo depending on trade lane disruptions and your docking quickness.
