Investment in Inventory – Delicate Balance?
Join us at the Supply Chain Café for an insightful webinar with Jelena Skuridina!
Imagine this: You’ve filled your warehouse with inventory, confident that you’re prepared for any situation. But what’s the biggest risk you might be overlooking?
Unpaid invoices—the leading cause of business failure in Belgium. Cash flow is critical. However, inventory ties up your cash. So, the question remains: Is inventory part of the solution, or is it the problem?
At this Supply Chain Café, we’ll dive into the essential metrics that can help you strike the perfect balance.
Together, we’ll explore the fundamentals of Holding Costs, Inventory Turns, and why these concepts are more important than ever. We’ll also uncover how to use them strategically to maximize your Return on Investment and ensure your inventory is working for you, not against you.
