Day-35
SKU β the 3 letters that run retail.
SKU = Stock Keeping Unit
Every unique product has one. It's the DNA of inventory management.
Example:
β Red Nike shoe, Size 8 = SKU #001
β Red Nike shoe, Size 9 = SKU #002
β Blue Nike shoe, Size 8 = SKU #003
Why it matters:
β Tracks what's selling and what's not
β Triggers reorder when stock falls below threshold
β Enables accurate demand forecasting
β Prevents selling something you don't have
The bigger the company, the more SKUs.
Amazon manages 350 MILLION+ SKUs.
That's supply chain data at insane scale.
Day-34
How Zara delivers new fashion in 2 weeks when others take 6 months.
The secret? Supply chain mastery.
β Zara designs in Spain β small batches produced nearby (not China)
β If a design sells well β reorder immediately
β If it flops β killed before overstock builds
Most brands forecast 6 months ahead. They guess.
Zara responds to REAL demand in real time.
This is called "fast fashion supply chain" and it's a masterclass in agile logistics.
The clothes change every 2 weeks. The supply chain never sleeps.

Day-33
Hot take:
India doesn't have a manufacturing problem.
India has a WAREHOUSING problem.
β Only 10% of Indian warehouses are Grade A (modern, organized)
β 90% are unorganised, manual, untracked
β We lose crores daily in pilferage, damage, and inefficiency
Fix the warehouse β Fix Indian logistics β Fix Make in India.
It all starts on the warehouse floor.
Day-32
Most people think a warehouse is just a big room full of boxes.
It's not.
A modern warehouse has:
β Zone-based layouts (fast/slow moving goods separated)
β Pick-Pack-Ship conveyor systems
β WMS (Warehouse Management System) tracking every SKU
β Barcode & RFID for real-time inventory visibility
β Temperature-controlled zones for pharma/food
β Reverse logistics bays for returns
A well-run warehouse is a precision machine.
Bad warehouse = delayed orders, wrong items, angry customers.
Warehousing isn't boring. It's the heartbeat of supply chain.

Day-29
The Bullwhip Effect β one of the most dangerous phenomena in supply chain.
What happens:
Small demand change at retail level β gets AMPLIFIED as you go up the chain.
Example:
β Customers buy 10% more biscuits in January
β Retailer panics β orders 20% more
β Distributor panics β orders 40% more
β Factory panics β produces 80% more
Then demand normalizes β MASSIVE overstock at every level.
This causes billions in losses globally every year.
Information sharing between supply chain partners is the only cure.
Day-28
One month of tweeting about supply chain.
Here's what I've learned about sharing knowledge:
β Simple > complex. Always.
β Real examples beat textbook theory every time
β People don't know what supply chain is β and that's OUR failure to communicate
β The more specific, the more engagement
β Consistency > virality
Supply chain runs silently in the background of every life.
My job now is to make it loud.
See you in month 2. π¦
Day-27
Green Supply Chain β the next big frontier.
Did you know?
β Freight transport = 8% of global CO2 emissions
β Packaging waste from ecommerce is massive
β Inefficient routing wastes millions of litres of fuel daily
What companies are doing:
β EV fleets for last mile (Zomato, Swiggy, Amazon India)
β Reusable packaging
β AI route optimization to cut empty miles
β Supplier carbon audits
The future supply chain won't just be fast and cheap.
It'll be clean.

Day-26
During COVID, India faced a critical oxygen shortage.
The medical oxygen was THERE. The problem? Supply chain.
β Not enough cryogenic tankers to transport liquid oxygen
β Oxygen plants were in industrial zones, not near hospitals
β No tracking system for cylinder inventory
β Last-mile delivery to ICUs broke down
1000s of lives were at risk β not because of oxygen shortage but because of logistics failure.
Supply chain is literally a matter of life and death.
Never underestimate it.

Day-25
If you're an MBA student or fresher wanting to enter Supply Chain β read this π§΅
5 skills that will make you stand out immediately:
1/ Excel & Power BI β data is everything in SCM. Know pivot tables, dashboards, basic forecasting models.
2/ SAP basics β 70% of large companies run on SAP. Even knowing navigation gives you an edge.
3/ Inventory management concepts β EOQ, safety stock, reorder point. Know them cold.
4/ Vendor management β how to evaluate, negotiate, and rate suppliers.
5/ Communication β SCM is cross-functional. You talk to factory, warehouse, finance, and C-suite. Be clear.
Master these 5. You'll never be unemployed.
@eduardecom That 40% peak is almost entirely in Fashion & Apparel. Itβs driven by customers using the doorstep as a trial room ('bracketing' multiple sizes) and high Cash on Delivery (COD) rejection rates in Tier 2/3 cities. It completely guts net margins.
Day-24
Reverse Logistics β the supply chain nobody talks about.
When you return a product online, what happens?
Day 1: Pickup from your door
Day 2: Reaches local hub
Day 3: Quality check
Day 4: Decision tree:
β Resellable? β Back to inventory
β Repairable? β Goes to repair center
β Damaged? β Goes to recycler/scrap
In India, ecommerce returns are 20-40%.
Managing returns is its own massive supply chain operation.
