Retail Supply Chain Management (RSCM) refers to the process of managing the flow of goods, information, and services from suppliers to customers within the retail environment. It involves the planning, execution, and control of supply chain activities to ensure that products are delivered to retail stores or directly to customers in an efficient and timely manner. RSCM encompasses various activities, including procurement, inventory management, transportation, distribution, and demand forecasting, to create a seamless experience for customers while maximizing operational efficiency for retailers. The primary objectives of retail supply chain management are to minimize costs, improve customer satisfaction, and enhance the overall performance of the supply chain. Cost minimization is achieved by optimizing inventory levels, reducing excess stock, and eliminating inefficiencies in the distribution process. Retailers aim to deliver products to customers as quickly as possible, without delays, to meet customer expectations and enhance their shopping experience. By focusing on customer satisfaction, retailers ensure that the right products are available at the right time and place, improving their competitiveness in the market. Additionally, retailers need to ensure proper demand forecasting to anticipate customer preferences and trends, which
