What is the recommended minimum supply of all store supply items to effectively meet customer needs at CVS?

The recommended minimum supply of all store supply items to effectively meet customer needs at CVS is two weeks. This timeframe ensures that the store has enough inventory to handle demand fluctuations and provides a buffer against supply chain disruptions or delays in restocking.

By maintaining a two-week supply, CVS can adequately respond to customer needs without overstocking items that may not sell quickly, thereby optimizing inventory management and minimizing waste. This approach can also help ensure that customers find the products they need when they visit the store, enhancing customer satisfaction and loyalty. Having a supply that is too short, such as a one-week supply, might lead to stockouts and customer dissatisfaction, while a much longer supply could increase holding costs and the risk of obsolescence for perishable items.
