Footwear

In addition to being a fully-integrated retail management system, ChainDrive includes tools specifically designed to handle the complexities of footwear retailing.

Its distinct functionality not only allows you to purchase by pre-pack, but to distribute that way as well, ensuring style, color and size accuracy throughout your allocation process. Furthermore, ChainDrive’s mismatch management component resolves the issue of single shoes or size variance per pair, reducing losses and increasing profit.

ChainDrive’s intelligent size analysis, in conjunction with its multi-formula replenishment method, allows you to monitor your buying patterns by transforming stock-to-sales ratios into clear and accurate reflections of true size performance. This tool helps keep your size-sensitive business appropriately stocked, avoiding both inventory surplus and deficiency and therefore allowing you to maintain your margins.

For instances when a customer requests an item you do not have in stock at a particular store, ChainDrive’s real-time inventory look-up and automated transfers let you locate the requested item and deliver it to your customer in a timely manner, improving their overall satisfaction and increasing customer loyalty.
