UK honey producers who sell abroad don't just charge whatever a jar costs at home — the price a buyer in Tokyo or Dubai actually pays is built up from several stacked costs: production and packing, freight over distance, import duty charged at the border, and a margin for the exporter. This lab lets you pick a destination and honey grade and watch that price stack assemble live, on a small 3D map that shows the shipping lane from a UK apiary to the buyer's market.
Japan's tariff on liquid honey outside quota can exceed 25%, which is one reason many UK exporters target the EU and Gulf states first — shorter or duty-free routes keep more of the sale price as producer margin.
A 3D globe traces the shipping lane from a UK apiary to a chosen export market while a stacked price chart builds up the landed cost per kilogram — production, freight, tariff and margin — so you can see exactly what drives the price a foreign buyer pays.
Landed export price is a stack of costs, not a single number: base production cost by honey grade, freight scaled by distance, an import tariff set at the border, and a fixed exporter margin, all converted into the buyer's currency.
Pick a destination market and honey grade, then adjust the exchange rate, tariff and freight rate. Watch the price stack and shipping token respond, and check the benchmark gauge to see if your route is price-competitive worldwide.
Japan applies one of the steepest honey import tariffs of any major market, which is why many UK exporters prioritise the EU and Gulf states, where shorter routes and lower duty keep more of the sale price as producer margin.
