Solve stock issues, prevent sellouts, and build a stronger business with iVend’s omnichannel retail solution.

About a month ago, we hosted a webinar titled Mastering Inventory Management—a fast-paced, insight-packed session on what it really takes to avoid stockouts, clear out dead stock, and create smooth, connected retail experiences. If you missed it, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered.

This blog breaks down the biggest takeaways and why inventory management should no longer be an afterthought.

Before We Dive In: What is Retail Inventory Management?

Why Retailers Still Struggle

Many retailers still depend on outdated tools that update too slowly or don’t connect across systems. That creates blind spots—gaps between what your team thinks is available and what your customer is actually asking for.

When you don’t have accurate, real-time visibility, you end up guessing. That’s how stockouts and overstocks happen.

What It’s Costing You

Now let’s talk impact. Every time a shopper can’t find what they came in for, that’s not just a sale lost—it’s a customer lost. And every time you order more than you need, that’s cash sitting in boxes instead of working for your business.

Promotions that drive demand but aren’t backed by inventory insight? They backfire. Staff scrambling between systems to check stock? That slows service and adds to frustration. All of it chips away at your margin, your brand, and your growth.

Poor inventory management can quietly shrink your profits by as much as 5%. It’s a hidden leak, but one you can fix.

What Retailers Actually Need

Retailers today need clarity and speed. With iVend, you get a real-time view of inventory across all your stores and channels. Store associates can help customers from anywhere in the store without delays or second guesses. Reordering is based on real data, not gut feeling. Online and in-store stock stay in sync. And your sales data actually tells a story you can act on—fast.
