Unlock the True Potential of Special Events
Common Practice:
Adjusting inventory targets for special events often involves applying blanket increases to entire categories. Retailers tend to use conventional methods that lack the ability to differentiate between individual SKU-locations, leading to inefficiencies in inventory management.
The Problem:
This one-size-fits-all approach fails to consider the unique characteristics of each product in specific store locations. For best-selling items, the overall increase might not be sufficient to meet the surge in demand, resulting in stockouts and missed sales opportunities. On the other hand, slower-moving items might end up with excessive stock, leading to unnecessary waste and tying up capital.
