Non-moving inventory refers to stock that has not been consumed or sold for a specified period. It includes obsolete, excess, or dead stock, which ties up capital and occupies storage space. Identifying and addressing non-moving inventory is crucial for maintaining a healthy inventory turnover. These items should be either liquidated, discounted, or scrapped to reduce financial and operational burden. Inventory optimization platforms use analytics to flag non-moving SKUs, analyze root causes, and recommend disposition strategies. Regular reviews of inventory aging help prevent accumulation of unsellable stock.
