Meet Local Demands to Sell More
The solution is designed to help retailers define store-level assortments to match local demand by assortment breadth and depth.
Optimize Inventory Investments
Cluster management empowers retailers to cluster stores into groups using POS historical data to identify stores showing similar patterns in order to optimize inventory investment, accelerate sales, minimize inter-store transfers and reduce markdowns.
Retail Business Challenge
It can be difficult to get our assortment right. We often end up having to perform too many inter-store transfers and are forced to liquidate our stock at the end of the season, resulting in lower profit margins.

Raymark Assortment Planning is designed to help retailers specify an assortment that maximizes sales or gross margin.
Proven Retail Benefit
With Raymark Assortment Planning, you have the ability to create, analyze and approve assortment plans that will keep the right stock in the right stores, at the right times.
