Comment on How does my local Sonic run out of just the small box of chicken?
zedgeist@lemm.ee 5 months agoMy understanding is that companies rarely track inventory per piece directly, since it’s much easier to track box/package size as dictated by their distribution standards. So if a company runs out of small boxes, they can’t just undersize the amounts in a medium box without totally screwing up their inventory management, because their inventory management expects a certain amount in those medium boxes.
