How a Florida Distributor Cut Stockouts 40% and Carrying Costs 25%

Case study: a multi-channel Florida distributor was losing margin to stockouts on hot SKUs and capital to overstock on slow movers. Diagram Consulting unified inventory across storefronts, installed a demand-forecasting model, and restructured the vendor scorecard. Results: 40% fewer stockouts, 25% lower carrying cost, and a measurable rebound in fill rate on top-revenue SKUs.
