Major Events

Inventory risk refers to the possibility that a company may encounter difficulties in selling its supply of goods or experience a decline in the value of its inventory. Given the complexity of managing event stock, businesses must allocate sufficient time and resources to mitigate the risks associated with inventory management.

Key risks in stock management include:

• Inaccurate forecasting: Failing to order and sell the right quantities of inventory stock.

• Loss: Decreasing stock levels and, consequently, profits.
Damage: Resulting in waste due to inventory spoilage or destruction.

• Product lifecycle: Accumulating obsolete stock that cannot be sold.

• Theft: Particularly concerning high-value inventory items.

• Shelf life: Perishable items pose a greater risk as they have a limited lifespan.

• Unreliable suppliers: Can lead to production delays, stockouts, and customer dissatisfaction.

To ensure event organisers achieve maximum profit margins, it is essential to utilise all available products and capitalise on every sales opportunity. This is where the expertise of an independent professional, knowledgeable about the industry, becomes invaluable.
