Can fashion stock levels be forecast ?

Abstract

The key to the control of fashion stocks is the ability to identify slow‐sellers early — but the key word here is the company's definition of “slow‐seller”. David Freestone describes how a pilot study with a London fashion retailer helped to determine whether there is a “company retail life” for each of the ranges merchandised.
