Push inventory is an inventory management technique that places an emphasis on stocking items with an aim to meet consumer demand. It is a proactive approach to inventory management that can help businesses to manage their inventory more efficiently and increase sales. Using push inventory, businesses can:

• Maximize sales – Push inventory enables businesses to stock the items that customers want, when they want them.
• Reduce stock-outs – By stocking items ahead of time, businesses can reduce the risk of running out of popular items.
• Reduce inventory carrying costs – Push inventory helps businesses to minimize the amount of inventory they need to order and store.

Push inventory is based on the idea that businesses can predict customer demand and stock the items that they need. To do this, businesses must have accurate forecasting techniques and an understanding of their customer’s buying habits and preferences. To implement push inventory, businesses must consider various factors such as:

• The demand for the product
• The lead time to obtain the product
• The cost of the product
• The availability of the product

By understanding these factors, businesses can stock the items that customers want and reduce the risk of overstocking or running out of popular items. Push inventory can be a valuable tool for businesses looking to manage their inventory more effectively. By accurately forecasting customer demand and stocking items in advance, businesses can maximize sales and reduce inventory carrying costs. Inventory management Demand forecasting Inventory control
