Desigual presents its success story with Slim4 at the Retail Forum

The fashion company has managed to reduce its stock by 27%, with a 4% improvement in product availability

Retail Forum reaches its tenth anniversary and, once again, Slimstock did not want to miss this benchmark event for the retail sector. On this occasion, the Dutch company is attending the fair hand in hand with Desigual, to tell how they have managed to make operations profitable with Slim4 software, the European market leader in forecasting demand and optimizing inventories.

Retail Forum will bring together the retail community on March 31 at the Wanda Metropolitano in Madrid. Experts from the largest Spanish companies will analyze trends, present success stories in retail and share possible solutions to the new challenges of the future. Included in the LOGISTICS session “Transforming logistics – designing the retail of the future”, Slimtock and Desigual will present their success story at 4:00 p.m.

Arnau Peris, Executive Director of Slimstock Spain, accompanied by Pablo Rodríguez, Head of Merchandising & Product Distribution of Desigual and Fran Sánchez, S&OP and Supply Chain BP of the same company, will review the needs that the Spanish fashion company had to stock level and how it managed to resolve and satisfy them until it reduced its stock by 27% with a 4% improvement in product availability.

Desigual’s main need was to manage its stock more efficiently, reducing both its dispersion and store saturation. It was about putting the right stock in the right place at the right time. The solution also needed to provide an agile and user-friendly way to determine the best assortment of items across all clusters to meet billing targets. In this presentation, we will see how the project developed until the Spanish company achieved a reduction of 1,300 garments from the average stock per store.
