The Challenge

A multinational retailer was losing $180M annually to overstock and stockouts across 4,200 SKUs in 14 markets. Their legacy forecasting model ran weekly and couldn't account for local demand signals.

What We Built

We built a real-time demand forecasting system using gradient-boosted trees trained on 6 years of sales history, enriched with weather, local events, and social trend signals. The model runs hourly and feeds directly into their replenishment system.
