As businesses get increasingly more busy to keep up with rising customer expectations, it’s important to note that your inventory needs to be replenished. Reducing stock-outs and overstocks can lower your overall inventory costs by 10%. Also, 34% of businesses have shipped an order late because they inadvertently sold a product that was out-of-stock. When you don’t have proper inventory visibility, your business is less equipped to meet customer expectations. Your business simply cannot afford to disappoint its customers due to a lack of inventory.

By choosing to implement capable technology, your business can implement seamless shelf replenishment and higher inventory visibility to ensure optimal inventory levels. Issues like the ones below can be prevented with seamless replenishment:

  • Outdated operating systems
  • Time-consuming cycle counts
  • Lacking real-time visibility
  • Backlogged order fulfillment
  • Mistakes that make customers upset

To minimize these issues, modernized storefronts have begun to streamline crucial operations like cycle counting and seamless curbside service with mobile computing, RFID, and voice communication solutions since these successfully replace error-prone repetitive tasks with easy-to-use automation. For example, Zebra’s enterprise-grade mobile computers have been shown to maximize speed and accuracy, equipping the workforce with…
