Automated Inventory Management Crucial To POS

According to the 2017 “State of Small Business Report”, almost half of small businesses do not track the state of inventories or do it manually. Deliberate ignorance of stocks is expensive. Studies show that retailers around the world are losing $1.75 trillion a year due to easily preventable stock management problems such as:
$642 billion in preventable returns
$634 billion in lost sales
$471 billion in surplus
This is equivalent to almost 12% of global annual retail sales.
Thus, the cost of illiterate stockpile management, or lack thereof, is high, as the data confirm.
