Importing goods can often be cheaper due to lower production costs in the exporting country, such as cheaper labor, materials, or overhead expenses. Additionally, economies of scale can come into play, where larger production runs reduce per-unit costs. Trade agreements and tariffs can also impact pricing, sometimes leading to lower costs for imported goods. Lastly, competition in the global market can drive prices down, benefiting consumers.
