Cargo Ships

Explanation:

Supply inelasticity refers to a situation where even if companies increase the quantities offered and prices are reduced, (maintaining quality and quantity levels) the response to demand remains practically unchanged. In other words, depending on the product, it is possible to duplicate its offer, reduce or increase its sales price by “x%” and even so the increase or contraction in demand will change at low rates, often close to “0” ( zero). A product that would fit well in this concept are cargo ships.

Cargo ship consumers are not very sensitive to changes in prices and in the offer of this product.
