On-Shelf AvailabilityEva ALCAIDE,
B2B Manager, AUCHAN International (Group),Co-chair of the French OSA working group
The concept of OSA has been introduced through Europe by ECR France.
Listen to the OSA insights from the Global Leaders. On-Shelf Availability in Russia is the lowest in Europe. Some say this is a problem - we say it's an opportunity.
20% Out-of-stocks = additional 6% to annual sales! During the session we will share the best practices on OOS reduction and cases with leading retailers
