Inventory allocation: A key to streamlined ecommerce fulfilment - Eshopbox
Inventory allocation is a process of strategically tracking and optimising inventory levels across an ecommerce brand’s distribution network, i.e. sales channels and FC (fulfilment centre) locations. Let’s take an example to put it simply. If you sell on multiple channels like Amazon, Flipkart, and Shopify, you need to allot your inventory for specific channels to fulfil your orders. Moreover, to increase the speed of shipping, you are most likely to fulfil your orders from multiple warehouses.
