Managing inventory is one of the most complicated parts of running a food business – yet it’s also an essential part of ensuring that you’re prepared for success. After all, if you don’t have the inventory that you need to take advantage of big orders and opportunities, you’re basically allowing money to flow away down the drain.

At first, surplus stock in your warehouse can seem like nothing more than a hindrance. A frustrating problem that means you’re paying out more for storage solutions when the truth is that you’re not making much in profits, to begin with.

Depending on your industry and what you sell, the excess stock can take on a range of forms – from a seasonal item that simply doesn’t seem to move from the shelves to an exuberant over-purchase that was made under the assumption that you’d be able to make your money back in days.
