That is impressive. I’m all about not wasting anything and just-in-time restocking is great.

When I managed the Garden Center, inventory and turnover and top sellers versus things that languished was my priority. We had a LOT of perishables to move in a short window of time.

I must’ve been one of their only Managers to ever concern themselves with that - my sales were always higher than all the other stores and yearly Inventory (the BANE of every Retailer’s existence!) always went smoothly with few errors.

Well, we DID have a $3 million dollar error once, but that was just a keyboard entry error. Thank goodness! :)

When people say AI is a passing fad, I say, “Tell it to Walmart.”;-)
