Fashion & Apparel: Inventory is Cash Flow

Buy wrong, and you're stuck with dead stock and negative cash flow.

📚 8 articles⏱️ ~2.5 hoursIntermediate

About This Learning Path

Fashion is high-risk because inventory decisions are made 6 months before you know if they'll sell. You'll learn sell-through rate (what % of stock sells at full price?), GMROI (gross margin return on investment — is the space profitable?), and markdown strategy (how aggressively to discount slow sellers). You'll understand that unsold inventory is cash frozen in stock — it's not potential profit, it's current loss. You'll learn to forecast accurately, manage seasonal spikes, and optimize the inventory-to-sales ratio that keeps you cash-positive.
