Oil retail requires accurate forecasting, continuous rotation and margin control

Oil retail requires accurate forecasting, continuous rotation and margin control

In the retail sector, oil management (olive, seeds or blends) involves balancing availability, rotation and profitability in a context of strong variation in prices and consumption. Retailers must keep shelves stocked without oversizing stock, manage seasonal promotions and optimize profitability by reference and point of sale.

The main challenges faced by the oil industry

  • What does it mean for your company?

    • High variability in consumption due to promotions and weather

      Consumption skyrockets in specific periods (campaigns, summer, holidays), generating peaks that are difficult to reach forecast.

    • Static forecast based on historical data

      Forecasts do not reflect current customer behavior or healthy consumption trends.

    • Loss of sales due to lack of stock on shelves

      Linear breakdowns directly affect customer experience and brand perception.

    How Imperia SCP solves it

    • Analysis of external variables

      Predictive planning incorporates external variables such as calendar, weather and promotional activity, adjusting demand in real time.

    • Dynamic recalculation of the forecast

      AI models They recalculate demand weekly by reference, area and type of store, improving accuracy and reducing breakages.

    • Replenishment alerts

      Generate automatic replenishment alerts and suggest orders based on rotation and available stock in the warehouse or logistics center.

    Inaccurate forecasting of demand and shelf breaks
  • What does it mean for your company?

    • Excess stock after promotions or consumption peaks

      Campaigns generate oversupply and space saturation.

    • Low reference turnover premium or low demand

      Special or high-end oils slow down the flow and reduce the overall margin.

    • Expiration or deterioration of the product due to poor rotation

      Oils sensitive to light or time lose quality if they are not managed correctly.

    How Imperia SCP solves it

    • Forecast after promotions

      The post-promotional forecast automatically adjusts coverage and redistributes surpluses between stores or distribution centers.

    • Product segmentation according to rotation

      Segmentation ABC-XYZ identifies slow-moving products and recommends specific strategies: liquidation, replacement or space reduction.

    • FEFO System

      FEFO planning prioritizes the sale of lots that are close to expiration, reducing waste and quality losses in the store.

    Excess inventory and obsolescence in store
  • What does it mean for your company?

    • Orders not aligned with real demand

      Replacements are based on staff estimates, not on consumption data.

    • Delays or incomplete deliveries from the distributor

      Stores do not receive the product in time to keep the shelves full.

    • Lack of coordination between promotions and availability

      Commercial campaigns do not always coincide with logistics capacity or available stock.

    How Imperia SCP solves it

    • Synchronization between forecast, sales and stock

      The system connects sales, inventory and forecast, generating automatic orders based on real demand and coverage levels.

    • Supplier evaluation

      Supplier evaluation allows synchronizing delivery times and scheduling dynamic replenishments.

    • Collaboration between departments

      Collaborative planning connects marketing, purchasing and logistics to ensure the availability of the promoted product throughout the channel.

    Insufficient coordination between store, warehouse and distribution
  • What does it mean for your company?

    • Difficulty in allocating space according to rotation

      References with low turnover take up valuable space on shelves.

    • Lack of control over profitability by point of sale

      There is no clear information about which products or stores generate the highest margin.

    • Difficulty in maintaining assortment coherence

      Excessive references complicate management and reduce shelf efficiency.

    How Imperia SCP solves it

    • Space allocation

      Planning Predictive analysis recommends the optimal allocation of space based on profitability and sales behavior.

    • Dashboards with profitability KPIs

      Dashboards integrate sales, cost and margin data, offering a detailed view of profitability by reference and location.

    • Reference evaluation

      Predictive assortment analysis suggests which references to keep, rotate or eliminate, balancing variety and profitability.

    Space management and profitability of the shelf
  • Low turnover in mid-range or premium products
    Low turnover in mid-range or premium products

    References with higher margin rotate slowly and take up valuable space.

    The system identifies slow-moving products and recommends promotion or redistribution strategies.

    Variability in demand due to cross promotions or seasonality
    Variability in demand due to cross promotions or seasonality

    Sales depend on external factors such as campaigns, weather or competitor prices.

    Predictive models incorporate external variables and correct the forecast automatically.

    Lack of control over the margin by category
    Lack of control over the margin by category

    The real impact of prices, discounts or product mix is not evaluated.

    The dashboards cross-reference cost, sales and margin data to define more profitable pricing strategies.
