In this blog, I\u2019ll walk you through how to draw a supply and demand graph properly, step by step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><a href=\"https:\/\/infograph.venngage.com\/signup\/?category=charts&#038;subcategory=line\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><button class=\"btn-cta\"><b>CREATE SUPPLY AND DEMAND GRAPHS<\/b><\/button><\/a><\/center>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Understanding the basics: Supply and demand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I won\u2019t pretend that supply and demand are brand-new concepts. We all have heard of supply and demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But most explanations still make them sound like preparing for a college degree in economics: elite and convoluted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a simple refresher to understand them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>Demand is how much of a product people want to buy at a certain price. The real intention to buy matters. Because everyone wants a Tesla, but if you can\u2019t afford it, you\u2019re not part of the real demand.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Supply, on the other hand, is how much of a product producers are willing to sell at a certain price. Not just how much they can produce, but what they\u2019re willing to put on the market, given the effort, cost and profit margin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When prices go up, demand tends to fall. Think of the time when&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/tonifitzgerald\/2023\/11\/20\/study-people-are-canceling-streaming-services-because-of-rising-rates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">streaming platforms hiked prices<\/a>&nbsp;and suddenly everyone started canceling their subscriptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when prices drop, demand goes up. You\u2019ve seen how people\u2019s stampede during Black Friday sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Supply works exactly the opposite. When prices rise, suppliers are willing to produce and sell more. That\u2019s why cab drivers flood the ride-sharing apps during peak hours; higher fares mean better payouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when more ride-sharing companies enter a new city, the increased supply often leads to price wars which makes it cheaper for people to take a cab instead of driving themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The point where the two meet? That\u2019s your equilibrium. And that\u2019s exactly what most supply and demand graphs are built for. If you&#8217;re clear on this, drawing the graph becomes much easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, let\u2019s break down the step-by-step process of how to actually draw a supply and demand graph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step-by-step guide to drawing a supply and demand graph<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know how supply and demand work, you can turn the learning into something you can actually explain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To reiterate, you can put this theory into presenting a growth trend, proposing a new pricing strategy or explaining a sudden drop (or spike) in website traffic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can create this graph either in Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets\u2026whichever you find easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how to draw a supply and demand graph from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Label the axes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Every graph has two axes and the supply and demand graph is no different. But don\u2019t rush this step. How you label the axes makes all the difference between a graph that\u2019s useful and one that just looks like a graph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how to go about it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Label the vertical axis (called Y-axis), which stands for price. This is where you\u2019ll map the different prices at which a product or service might be sold.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The horizontal axis (called X-axis) represents quantity. This is the number of units bought or sold at those prices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep the labeling clean and clear. If you\u2019re doing this digitally, use tools that let you customize fonts and colors for readability. If you\u2019re sketching by hand, take your time. The graph only works if people can understand what they\u2019re looking at in seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pro-tip<\/strong>: Don\u2019t clutter the graph with too many markers. Stick to 3\u20135 axes for both price and quantity so the graph is easy to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Plot the demand curve<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Demand is what people are willing to buy at a set price. The demand curve slopes downward from left to right. Why? Because like we discussed above, a drop in prices leads people to buy (i.e. demand) more. And when prices rise, they buy less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s say you\u2019re plotting the demand for iced coffee in the summer. Here&#8217;s a simple set of data to work with:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exec-table-1-min.png\" alt=\"how to plot the demand curve\" class=\"wp-image-104008\" width=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exec-table-1-min.png 906w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exec-table-1-min-300x127.png 300w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exec-table-1-min-768x326.png 768w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exec-table-1-min-730x309.png 730w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 906px) 100vw, 906px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Now, take these data points and plot them on the graph. Each price maps to a quantity. Once you have all five points on the graph, connect them with a smooth curve. That\u2019s your demand line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t stress about perfect curvature. What matters is that it clearly shows the relationship between price and quantity demanded: lower prices, higher demand or vice versa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Plot the supply curve<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let\u2019s switch places. Remember, supply is what sellers are willing to offer at different price points. And unlike demand, the supply curve slopes upward from left to right. Why? Because sellers want to sell more if they can charge more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using the same iced coffee example, here\u2019s a basic supply schedule:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exec-table-2-min.png\" alt=\"how to plot supply curve\" class=\"wp-image-104010\" width=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exec-table-2-min.png 906w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exec-table-2-min-300x127.png 300w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exec-table-2-min-768x326.png 768w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/exec-table-2-min-730x309.png 730w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 906px) 100vw, 906px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Start plotting these points on the above graph, then draw a smooth curve that moves upward from left to right. That\u2019s your supply line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now your graph is starting to look like something an economist might nod at.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Identify the equilibrium point<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the part most people fumble, but it only makes sense after the other steps are in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Look at where the two curves intersect, i.e. the equilibrium. It\u2019s where the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied. Buyers are willing to pay that price and sellers are willing to supply that quantity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, everyone is happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Going by the iced coffee example, both demand and supply meet at $4 per cup and 30 units. That\u2019s your equilibrium price and quantity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to clearly mark this intersection on your graph. It\u2019s the whole point of drawing the graph in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">But what if the curves shift?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your supply and demand graphs aren\u2019t set in stone. It should move with the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s because real markets are messy. Buying behaviors aren\u2019t static, seasons change and unexpected events can shake things up overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That iced coffee that everyone loved last summer? It might see a spike in demand during a heatwave and drop off completely when pumpkin spice season rolls around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing how to draw and read these market shifts will help you anticipate changes, adapt to them or stay ahead of trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factors that shift supply and demand curves<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If price is the engine that drives supply and demand, then everything else happening around it is the traffic and weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And just like a smooth road can suddenly get messy after a downpour or due to a traffic jam, markets are unpredictable even if your pricing variable stays the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I looked up the literature for this and this is what economists call \u201cnon-price determinants.\u201d In layman\u2019s terms, these variables are wild cards that can change the market dynamics without touching the price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the case of our beloved iced coffee, another lockdown-like situation, a PR scandal involving your brand or a new coffee brand can shift demand against you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factors that shift the demand curve<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s look at these non-pricing demand shifters in detail:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Consumer income<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>When buyers have more money, they tend to spend more. And not just on fancier things, just more of what they already like. Think: splurging on extra iced coffee after getting a bonus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, when money\u2019s tight, people are quick to swap their favorite Starbucks Iced Mocha for a $1 decaf from the corner store or whatever\u2019s free at the office vending machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>Tastes and preferences<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Trends aren\u2019t just fluff. They move markets. A viral TikTok about a new oat milk-based \u201chealthy\u201d coffee drink can make regular iced coffee look downright diabetic. Shifts in buyer preferences can drive up demand like crazy or push it to obscurity without any warning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong>Expectations<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>If people expect prices to rise, they buy more now. If they expect a recession, they hold off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember the toilet paper rush during the COVID-19 panic? Or during the 2008 financial crisis, when many delayed big purchases fearing job loss and tighter budgets. The market swings between demand and supply like a pendulum, depending on what way the wind is blowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong>Prices of related goods<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s like the value of shovels during a gold rush: the price and demand for mining tools can have a ripple effect on your product\u2019s supply and demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the price of coffee creamers goes up, it can drive customers away from your iced latte. On the other hand, if the cost of ingredients like&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kayakopi.com\/what-is-kopi-luwak?srsltid=AfmBOorfbRBHWAlWBaq_U5m9Elv6oAhvWpDcB7yXg7D5DFKFiSlQOFo8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Kopi Luwak beans<\/a>&nbsp;goes down, suddenly your iced coffee becomes a more attractive choice. And that can boost demand for your coffee brand without any change in price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong>Number of buyers<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>More buyers means more demand. It\u2019s why local caf\u00e9s see more sales during busy tourist seasons. Fewer buyers and the demand shrinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding who your buyers are and how that group cycles through different buying behaviors, can help you anticipate demand swings before they hit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factors that shift the supply curve<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let\u2019s look at the behind-the-scenes factors that can affect how supply shifts regardless of price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Raw material costs<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>If the cost of raw materials or labor rises, producing your iced coffee becomes more expensive. Suppliers will cut back. And if costs drop, margins improve and supply tends to go up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>Technology<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Better tech equals more efficient production. A new espresso machine that cuts brewing time in half could double your output. Tech boosts supply without needing more resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong>Government policies<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>High taxes can limit supplies, while tax relief often encourages it. If your caf\u00e9 gets a tax break on sustainable cups, you will most likely stock more of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong>Number of sellers<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>When more producers enter the market, supply expands. If a premium coffee brand launches five new outlets in your city, more choices for buyers to shop from. Similarly, fewer sellers mean tighter supply. It\u2019s the reason why gourmet coffee is scarce and more expensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Real-world applications of supply and demand graphs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Contrary to what most people think, supply and demand graphs aren\u2019t limited to academic circles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They\u2019re practical decision-making tools used in business boardrooms, trading floors, government offices and even your neighborhood caf\u00e9s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re pricing your product, forecasting growth or planning inventory, these graphs offer you an easy way to predict how people behave when markets evolve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few real-world applications of supply and demand graphs happening around you right now:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Pricing strategy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Businesses routinely use supply and demand analysis to find the sweet spot between too cheap and too expensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Price your iced coffee too low and you may attract more customers than you can handle. Plus, thin margins will lead you to losses. Price it too high and you may be left with a fridge full of unsold cold brew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Supply and demand graphs help visualize this trade-off so brands can make better calls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s an example template that compares the demand for luxury goods in the U.S. over a 10-year graph:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-9-min-1024x579.png\" alt=\"Luxury Products Demand Single Spline Chart\" class=\"wp-image-103947\" width=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-9-min-1024x579.png 1024w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-9-min-300x170.png 300w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-9-min-768x434.png 768w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-9-min-1536x868.png 1536w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-9-min-730x413.png 730w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-9-min.png 1560w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<center><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/templates\/charts\/luxury-products-demand-single-spline-chart-d62de5fe-91ec-407f-b5e6-19d053310c03\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><button class=\"btn-cta\"><b>EDIT THIS TEMPLATE<\/b><\/button><\/a><\/center>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.

If you&#8217;re creating a new category with unmet demand, scale before competitors catch on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a graph template that new businesses in a crowded market can use this graph to test pricing. For instance, a SaaS startup can plot how many users sign up for their product at different price points and see where demand meets supply.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-12-min-1024x790.png\" alt=\"Supply and Demand Diagram Template\" class=\"wp-image-103951\" width=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-12-min-1024x790.png 1024w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-12-min-300x231.png 300w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-12-min-768x592.png 768w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-12-min-730x563.png 730w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-12-min.png 1206w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<center><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/templates\/charts\/simple-supply-and-demand-diagram-f4d6d3b9-7653-4d49-af04-a450270b7dfb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><button class=\"btn-cta\"><b>EDIT THIS TEMPLATE<\/b><\/button><\/a><\/center>\n\n\n\n<p>Supply and demand graphs can clearly show the relationship between price and quantity, but only if they\u2019re presented accurately.

But drawing it in a way that\u2019s clear enough for your team, client or classroom? That\u2019s where most people get stuck (including me).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news: you don\u2019t have to be an Excel wizard or an economics professor to build one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Venngage\u2019s drag-and-drop templates, you can draw a supply and demand scenario in just a few clicks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I did it and I never took Econ 101 or crunched numbers in a spreadsheet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re pitching a new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.custify.com\/blog\/saas-pricing-model-strategies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pricing model<\/a> or trying to figure out why coffee sales dipped last month, you can use Venngage to create a visual graph that can help you plot a supply and demand graph in under 10 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let me show you how easy this is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Pick the right template<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Start with&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/features\/graph-maker\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Venngage\u2019s Graph Maker<\/a>.

For instance, if you\u2019re plotting demand at prices ranging from $2 to $6, make sure your Y-axis covers that range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Y-axis (vertical): Label this as \u201cPrice (USD per cup)\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>X-axis (horizontal): Label this as \u201cQuantity (cups of iced coffee sold per day)\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For ease of plotting this graph, I\u2019ll keep the minimum and maximum value for the price axis in cents. You can customize the graph data by double-clicking the graph design:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-3-min-1024x432.png\" alt=\"how to draw a supply and demand graph\" class=\"wp-image-103954\" width=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-3-min-1024x432.png 1024w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-3-min-300x127.png 300w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-3-min-768x324.png 768w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-3-min-1536x648.png 1536w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-3-min-2048x864.png 2048w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-3-min-730x308.png 730w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Plot your demand curve<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, add your demand data points. Click on the&nbsp;<strong>Data&nbsp;<\/strong>tab in the same&nbsp;<strong>Edit Chart<\/strong>&nbsp;panel and enter the numbers you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how I did it:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-4-min.png\" alt=\"how to plot a supply and demand graph\" class=\"wp-image-103955\" width=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-4-min.png 720w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-4-min-234x300.png 234w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Once again, I made the edits based on our iced coffee example. As the price drops from $6 to $2, the quantity sold rises from 100 to 500 cups\/day. This will create a demand line in the graph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Plot the supply curve<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, you\u2019ll need to add the supply data. Like we discussed earlier, if the price increases from $2 to $6, more caf\u00e9s are willing to sell, raising the quantity from (let\u2019s suppose) 150 to 350.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will give you an upward-sloping supply curve:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-5-min-1024x432.png\" alt=\"free supply and demand graph template\" class=\"wp-image-103956\" width=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-5-min-1024x432.png 1024w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-5-min-300x127.png 300w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-5-min-768x324.png 768w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-5-min-1536x648.png 1536w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-5-min-2048x864.png 2048w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-5-min-730x308.png 730w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 5: Highlight the equilibrium<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Where your supply and demand lines intersect is the market equilibrium: the sweet spot where supply meets demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this example, that point is 30 cups at $2.50 per cup. You can use Venngage\u2019s annotation features to clearly label this.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-6-min-1024x727.png\" alt=\"how to draw supply and demand chart easy tutorial\" class=\"wp-image-103957\" width=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-6-min-1024x727.png 1024w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-6-min-300x213.png 300w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-6-min-768x545.png 768w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-6-min-730x518.png 730w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-6-min.png 1242w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 6: Customize the design<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to make it on-brand? Add your logo, change the colors to match your company\u2019s palette or drop in an iced coffee icon for flavor (pun intended).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Venngage lets you do all that with zero design background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For our example, I replaced the default icons with other non-price determinants that can improve the caf\u00e9\u2019s sales. These include healthy all-day breakfast options, a new coffee variety, home delivery and free Wi-Fi:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-7-min-830x1024.png\" alt=\"learn to plot supply and demand graph for free\" class=\"wp-image-103958\" width=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-7-min-830x1024.png 830w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-7-min-243x300.png 243w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-7-min-768x948.png 768w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-7-min-730x901.png 730w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2025\/06\/graph-7-min.png 932w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 7: Share or download<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019re happy with the graph, export it as a PNG, PDF or even a presentation slide.
