Hi, I’m John Power, one of the solution experts here at RELEX.
Pharmacies face some of the most unique challenges in forecasting and replenishment. From managing regional variations and legal regulations to handling seasonal demands, ever-expanding assortments, and omni-channel retail, the landscape is more demanding than ever.
