Overview
Increase Topline Sales Up To 200 Basis Points Annually
Having product available when shoppers want it drives sales and customer satisfaction and loyalty. By decreasing lost sales due to stock outs, retailers can boost toplines up to 2% annually.
Improve Margins by 20 to 70 Basis Points Annually
Better aligning inventories with market-level demand enhances profit through higher sales, lower inventory costs, and/or optimizing the timing & depth of markdowns. Businesses selling fresh products can generate millions of dollars in costs savings annually by reducing perishable shrink by 10-35%.
Improve Forecast Accuracy Up To 30% Annually
Improve the accuracy of planning and pre-season allocation and/or in-season replenishment by factoring in weather-based demand volatility on historical sales.
