Retail success demands more than meeting customer expectations. It requires agility, precision, and a competitive edge both on the shop floor and in the back office. Discovering the ideal retail model can seem overwhelming due to the industry’s constant, complex balancing act of pricing, inventory, promotions, supplier relationships and growth pressures.
