Merchandise planning is a little known area within retail that quietly plays a key role in the success of a retail organisation.

There are few organisations that truly see the benefit it brings into an organisation and due to the perceived amount of investment needed to set up a merchandise planning department, it is a function more commonly seen in larger organisations. Yet, its power can benefit any sized retail organisation or venture.

There are various definitions that have been given on what merchandise planning is, many of which includes the key aspects of what is involved in planning and gives a technical definition. Even though these definitions are correct, the one thing they do not do is provide a definition that explains what merchandise planning is to a layperson.

This is where this book comes in as it gives a simplistic answer to the questions: 'what is merchandise planning?' and 'what does a merchandise planner do?'

Also covered in the book are the skills needed to perform the role of merchandise planning, a look at the effect technology has had and continues to have in retail and how retail has changed through the years.

Merchandise planning is not just for large retail organisations and by gaining an understanding of the function from reading this book, you will start to see it is something that can be applied to any retail venture where there is an exchange of goods, regardless of retail size.

Sooo Cute 🥰 Highly Recommend 👝👛
Color: Black
Love love LOVEEEEEE this bag omg it’s so cute and just the right size. It paired so well with my FN outfit at my aunt party and I received many compliments on how cute the bag is. Definitely can hold a lot (wallet, car keys, lip gloss, small hand sanitizer, and iphone). Thankfully mine came with bag strap which is gold as well as the zipper and all other buttons on bag is gold color 😍 I’m 5”7 and the strap fits and not short. This is my new favorite bag faaa sureee 🖤🖤🖤
