Today’s Retailers face the following questions:

  • Which merchandise do I stock in which stores?
  • Where do I display products on the shelves?
  • Which items should I promote?

Many merchants must consider hundreds of stores and thousands of SKUs when making decisions. Industry pressures have changed the profit implications of merchandising decisions as well. Brand loyalty and margins have withered as competition has swelled. Suppliers are more informed. Industry consolidation is accelerating.

Overworked merchants now face a situation where critical merchandising decisions made on intuition or historical reports no longer deliver the necessary results. To meet merchandising goals, a series of elements must take place simultaneously, and they all must be developed in tandem. These elements include:

  • Open-to-buy strategies.
  • Assortment planning.
  • Price and promotion optimization.
  • Space planning.
  • Allocation and replenishment.
