The Issue of Dormant Stocks
In many companies with a network of branches, inventory management can quickly become complex. Some branches may experience rapid stock depletion due to high demand, while others accumulate dormant stocks, causing space congestion and tying up valuable capital. These imbalances are not only costly but can also compromise operational fluidity and customer satisfaction.

The Consequences of Poor Inventory Optimization
Poorly optimized inventory can lead to various negative impacts on a company:

• Capital Immobilization: Excess inventory represents capital that could be more productively employed elsewhere.
• Increased Storage Costs: Surplus stock requires more storage space, leading to additional costs.
• Perishability Risks: Some products may deteriorate or become obsolete, resulting in direct losses.
• Stockouts: Conversely, insufficient inventory can lead to stockouts, causing lost sales and customer frustration.
• Logistical Complexity: Managing varying inventory levels across different branches complicates planning and logistics.

The Importance of Effective Inventory Management
To overcome these challenges, companies must optimize their inventory management.
Proper inventory management ensures that each branch has the right stock level
according to demand, reducing costs and maximizing operational efficiency.
