Most retailers must manage networks of physical and digital stores (channels). This means deciding where goods will be made available, and whether to relocate inventory over time. The goal of this session is to provide a clear perspective on the nature of the problem, how the various aspects of the problem can be quantified and finally how the problem can be solved.

Specific topics include:

• Detecting significant over- and under-performance of products

• Translating a store network into a formal diagram

• Calculating a threshold for moving products
