I share a simple formula, which is easy to remember and use, and helps you to purchase goods reasonably without pressing the goods.
First, calculate the number of goods normally reserved in the store. Usually, the number of goods in the store = display quantity+turnover quantity.
1. Display quantity
Display volume refers to the number of goods needed to fill the whole store, which is related to the number of shelves in the store.
Display quantity = display quantity per shelf × shelf quantity
It is generally recommended to release 15- 18 pieces in spring and summer, and 12- 15 pieces in autumn and winter.
If the practical area of a clothing store is 50 square meters, because the store space design is different, here we say that it has shelves of 16 1.2 meters, and now it is winter, then its display volume is about 16× 14=224 pieces.
2. Turnover
Turnover refers to the quantity needed to update all the goods in the store.
Turnover = turnover period × daily average sales, while turnover period = sales time+replenishment time.
To put it simply, the sales time is how long it takes for the goods to be sold out from the shelf, usually several weeks or months. At present, the change degree of popularity is generally 7- 15 days;
Replenishment time, that is, how long it takes to place an order for replenishment to the store, depends on the supplier of the goods, but the sooner the better, the better the operation of the store.
In the same 50-square-meter store above, if 8 pieces of clothes are sold every day on average, the sales time is 15 days, and the replenishment time is 5 days, then the turnover is about (15+5)×8= 160 pieces.
Then, the quantity of goods in the store is 224+ 160=384 pieces.
In this way, we can basically ensure a reasonable stocking quantity.
