X2 (UK) – Streamlining retail logistics for growth
Understanding the logistics challenges in retail
Retail logistics is a particularly complex system that requires precision and efficiency in a number of key areas.
Inventory balancing: Retailers face the ongoing challenge of avoiding overstocking while preventing shortages to optimise stock turnover.
Seasonal & demand fluctuations: They need to adjust their supply chain capacity quickly to match shifting market conditions and promotional campaigns.
Rising costs: Managing fuel prices, last-mile inefficiencies and compliance burdens can have a major impact on operational costs.
A well-tuned supply chain is the key to meeting customer expectations and maintaining competitiveness and profitability. In retail, it also provides the option to pursue Just-in-time (JIT) inventory management strategies that allow retailers to significantly cut operational costs while reducing the risk of over- or understocking.
