Order fresh goods with shelf life in mind
For products with a short shelf life, ordering too much means write‑offs and discounted sell‑offs. Veritico STOCK takes shelf life into account when it calculates orders and proposes transfers for stock that is close to expiry.
What short shelf life costs
Write‑offs eat the margin
Every unsold day‑fresh item is a loss, and cautious buyers compensate by ordering less and running out.
Sell‑offs at a discount
Stock close to expiry ends up on promotion shelves instead of being sold at full price.
Stores cannot see the network
One store writes off what another could still sell.
