Overcome today’s fashion retail supply chain challenges
Slim4 addresses the unique demands of the fashion retail industry, ensuring you stay ahead in a market that changes with the seasons.
Sustainability
Challenge
Pressure to reduce carbon emissions comes from partners, suppliers, and customers. Products must be produced and delivered in the most eco-friendly way possible.
Solution
Slim4 minimises waste by optimising inventory levels across stores and DC’s. Advanced forecasting ensures retailers only stock what they need, reducing emissions from supply to fulfilment.
Ecommerce and omnichannel
Challenge
Omnichannel in fashion retail can incur higher costs than in other sectors, when factoring in returns. These returns can skew storage, sustainability, and logistics projections if not anticipated.
Solution
Slimstock’s platform supports omnichannel inventory management, ensuring accurate stock levels across all sales channels and inventory holdings, inclusive of returns and replacement orders.
Inclusivity
Challenge
Fashion brands have to expand their product ranges to include more sizes and styles, to accommodate diverse customer demands.
Solution
Slim4 provides real-time insights into sales patterns and customer preferences, enabling retailers to stock the right mix of products, sizes, and styles, where they’re most needed.
Fast and slow fashion
Challenge
While fast fashion remains popular, there is a growing movement towards slow fashion, which emphasizes quality and sustainability.
Solution
Slim4 helps retailers balance fast and slow fashion by optimising inventory levels. Automated replenishment also enables you to manage by exception, focusing on strategic tasks.
Personalisation
Challenge
Consumers more and more seek personalised shopping experiences, with tailored recommendations and customised products.
Solution
Advanced analytics help to understand customer behaviours, with retailers using Slim4 data and business intelligence to offer more personalised product recommendations and promotions at store or region level.
Resale and circular fashion
Challenge
The resale market and circular fashion are gaining traction as consumers look for more sustainable shopping options.
Solution
Slim4 supports retailers in managing resale inventory, suggesting the best way for stock to be put back into the supply chain for allocation, replenishment, or storage.

From our customers to you
Game-changer for our Supply Chain performance.
Once we had decided on which Supply Chain planning software you implement, it was a relatively straightforward implementation. We had great support from the Slimstock implementation team throughout the whole process.
Slim4 has helped us centralize our purchasing, which has led to less time spent overall when it comes to purchasing.
At the same time we have increased our service levels to customers by several percentage points while keeping our stock levels low.
Slim4 was an easy tool to learn with an intuitive interface.
The team was quite hands-on in getting the implementation done as efficiently as possible and the results were quite evident from the get-go.
