Merchandising Planning & Control

Overview

Syllabus Excerpt:

“The course exposes you (the student) to the mathematical concepts, techniques, and analysis which are fundamental to the buying and planning process. Retailing encompasses business functions to first procure goods from a manufacturer and later distribute and sell these goods to the end user or consumer. Many of these processes are highlighted upon using mathematical problems and interactive learning techniques. Upon successfully completing this course, you will understand how retailers systematically maximize return on investment, through planning sales and inventory to increase profitability…”

Main Project

The project for this course was a group project where students had to create their own buying company. My task in this project was to create all the illustrative work (except the floor plan), write about the colors that were being used, and create SKUs in excel.
