Four Pillars of Retail Operations

Demand forecasting, inventory management, assortment planning, and pricing decisions are the backbone of every retail business. This intermediate course combines these four operational levers and teaches you to make better decisions at every step—a practical edge whether you run a store or manage operations.

Rather than memorize theory, you'll work through real-world challenges using simulation tools. The hands-on, problem-driven approach helps retail owners, store managers, and business students internalize concepts and apply them directly. You'll leave with a toolkit for balancing inventory, matching products to customer demand, and setting competitive prices.
