If you ask ten different retailers, “What is merchandise planning?” you’ll likely receive ten different answers.

With MVP Retail, it’s not just about managing products…it’s about taking a strategic, systematic approach using our intuitive platform to ensure every buying decision contributes to a healthier bottom line.

A well-defined classification structure is the key to gaining the insight needed to take full advantage of your store’s sales potential.
You need a solid classification structure. Effective merchandise planning is based on those specific classifications, as each one represents a mini “business” within the confines of your store. Managing each of those “businesses”, or classifications, separately will lead to the proper flow of merchandise in your store.
As we know, every season the fashions change and vendors offer some great and some not-so-great merchandise.
Classifications allow you to look beyond these highly variable factors (such as fashion trends) and gain long-term understanding across the marketplace to recognize what is ACTUALLY in demand at your store. Our consultants at MVP Retail will help you set up this classification structure in a way that fits YOUR business!
