Hicrea Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Nakano-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yosuke Kanematsu), which develops AI SaaS for the fashion industry, announced that its inventory management AI SaaS "Vestory" has been implemented by Naigai Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President: Kenji Imaizumi; hereinafter "Naigai"). Naigai aims to maximize sales opportunities and increase revenue by optimizing SKU-specific ordering management utilizing demand forecasting AI.
Naigai, founded in 1920, is an apparel manufacturer primarily focused on legwear. It plans, manufactures, sells, and imports/exports textile products such as men's, women's, and children's socks, men's underwear, pajamas, and aprons.
**Background of Implementation**
In the apparel industry, it is essential to grasp demand fluctuations for each diversified product number and make appropriate ordering decisions. In particular, SKU-unit ordering management is a crucial task for both preventing lost sales opportunities due to stockouts and curbing excess inventory. On the other hand, if demand forecasting and ordering decisions rely on experience or individual management, it can lead to inconsistencies in judgment, increased aggregation workload, and delayed decision-making.
Against this backdrop, Naigai sought to create an environment that could achieve more precise and agile ordering operations by utilizing demand forecasting, with a view to expanding sales through improved accuracy in SKU-specific ordering management.
**Implementation Details**
In this Vestory implementation and operation support project, sales, gross profit, and inventory data for each product number were linked to Vestory via API integration with CROSS MALL. This establishes a foundation for centrally managing SKU-unit data.
Additionally, a separate ordering registration function was developed to enable ordering registration within Vestory, thereby automating outstanding order management. Furthermore, customization was performed based on Naigai's product category/product number system, lead times, sales forecast range, OFF rates, and other business characteristics, supporting ordering decisions utilizing demand forecasting AI.
Moreover, through AI prediction model tuning using past data, construction of data pipelines, preparation of operation manuals, and implementation of briefings and workshops, comprehensive implementation and operation support was provided, aiming for on-site adoption.
**Purpose of Implementation**
This Vestory implementation primarily aims to achieve the following:
* Increased sales through optimization of SKU-specific ordering management utilizing demand forecasting AI
* Suppression of lost sales opportunities due to stockouts and reduction of excess inventory risk
* Establishment of a foundation for continuous on-site utilization through data integration and operational support
**Future Utilization Policy**
Going forward, Naigai plans to advance inventory operations and sales planning by optimizing SKU-specific ordering management using demand forecasting AI through the utilization of Vestory. By connecting the sales and inventory data accumulated daily by the company to faster and more accurate ordering decisions, Naigai aims to build an operational system that contributes to increased sales.
Hicrea will also continue to support Naigai in establishing its operations, accompanying fashion industry businesses to realize more practical inventory and ordering management using demand forecasting AI.
