Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) is one of the first things that must be considered when comparing potential suppliers. Forming partnerships with suppliers that have MOQs that work for your business can result in optimized inventory, cost-savings, better supplier relationships, and increased customer satisfaction. Not taking MOQ into account, on the other hand, might mean contractually agreeing to buy more than you’re able to afford, store, or manage. This article will explore the concept in depth, discussing what it means and how to ensure it helps rather than hinders your ecommerce growth. #MOQ #MinimumOrderQuantity #Ecommerce #InventoryManagement #Shipfusion

Inventory management has the power to impact everything from operational costs to customer satisfaction. Opting to handle it in-house means being fully responsible for the results and how well they’re achieved. That’s great for total control over stock levels, but it can also be risky. Businesses without the expertise or technology to manage inventory in an efficient and cost-effective way often consider Vendor Managed Inventory as a potential alternative. In this article, we discuss what the vendor managed inventory model is, how it works, and when using it makes the most sense. #VendorManagedInventory #InventoryManagement #Ecommerce #Logistics #Shipfusion https://hubs.ly/Q02FtvB30
