5 Inventory Management Techniques for Wholesale Distributors
Wholesale distributors manage large product volumes, making inventory control essential. Techniques such as Just-in-Time (JIT), Economic Order Quantity (EOQ), ABC analysis, dropshipping, and cross-docking are highly effective. JIT minimizes overstocking, EOQ finds the most cost-efficient ordering sizes, and ABC analysis prioritizes high-demand products. Dropshipping expands product offerings without storage, and cross-docking ensures faster customer delivery. These five techniques streamline wholesale operations and increase profitability.
