Drug operations are typically the most profitable — and most dangerous — criminal enterprises in FiveM. From manufacturing to street sales, here's how drug systems work on most roleplay servers.
Types of Drugs
Most servers feature multiple drug types: weed (easier to produce, lower risk), cocaine (higher value, more heat), meth (complex production, high profit), and sometimes others. Each has different mechanics and police attention levels.
Manufacturing Operations
Drug labs require locations, equipment, raw materials, and time. You'll need to source supplies, protect your operation, and manage production schedules. Labs can be raided — location security is critical.
Distribution Networks
Moving product requires dealers, territory control, and customer relationships. You can sell directly (risky) or run a network of dealers who do street sales (safer, less profit per unit). Volume matters.
Territory and Turf
Drug sales often tie to territory control. Selling in another gang's area causes conflict. Controlling good territory means steady customers. Territory wars are about business as much as respect.
Police Heat
Drug operations attract police attention. The bigger your operation, the more likely detectives investigate. Rotate locations, limit who knows details, and always have legal cover stories. One bust can destroy everything.
