Omnichannel commerce is the new standard. Brands are no longer confined to a single sales channel—D2C brands sell on Amazon, wholesalers launch Shopify stores, and retailers expand into marketplaces. While this diversification fuels growth, it also introduces complexity in forecasting and inventory management.
The Challenges of Omnichannel Forecasting
Each new sales channel adds layers of complexity:
- Multiple inventory nodes or shared inventory across channels
- Different demand patterns for each channel
- Complex forecasting and replenishment needs across locations
