Slow-Moving Inventory

Inventory with low usage or sales velocity relative to expected demand.

Examples

  1. 01Slow-moving inventory includes 600 valves that sold only 15 units in the last 12 months.
  2. 02Every quarter, the warehouse lists slow-moving inventory by location, and items not touched for 12 months are moved to a cheaper outer storage area.
  3. 03Offering slow-moving inventory to dealers at a 30 % discount frees EUR 80,000 of capital and 120 pallet places in the main warehouse.
