Finish Line Adds Advanced Allocation Software
The Finish Line selects Advanced Allocation from MID Retail to forecast and distribute its athletic footwear, apparel and accessories to all store locations.
Finish Line performed an extensive software evaluation for its allocation needs, and selected MID Retail based on its functionality, technology to support large volume retailer needs, and store level forecasting and size pre-pack optimization features.
"MID's system capabilities align perfectly with Finish Line's allocation needs," says Roger Underwood, senior vice president of e-commerce operations, Finish Line. "A critical key to our success is the ability to control store inventory down to the detail of size level, and MID can do this and much more. Finish Line is excited about our partnership with MID."
The MID system has several major new features including accounting for out-of-stock lost sales by style, color and size, to the development of size pre-packs to drive the ordering process.
