What Does It Mean To Be ‘End-to-End’?
When you think about your end to end retail solutions for retail supply chain, it travels from the moment you begin considering an inventory purchase to when you actually see your customer walk out the door with your product. A lot can (and does) happen in between
Inventory purchases are usually bulk. You determine how many of a particular product you want and then buy that many. Some retailers purchase inventory for each store and have the product shipped directly to the store. Others have the product sent to a warehouse where it is received, divided into classes, shelved, and then allocated per the needs of the store and trucked to each store location separately.
