Abstract
Retailers are rapidly coming to realise that sales lost through stock unavailability is a serious profit risk. Having the right merchandise to hand at the right time is a problem, especially in these times of shortages. In this article the merchandising methods of two hypothetical American stores, Alpha and Beta are discussed.
