A leading Spanish retailer in the European beauty industry, with operations and stores in all European countries, required RGIS to complete a full inventory of all stock held in their central warehouse.
THE CHALLENGE
The beauty retailer partnered with RGIS to understand what stock they held within their central warehouse in Spain:
- They chose RGIS as they were the current stocktaking vendor of their retail stores
- A tight timeline was required from Friday to Sunday – to prevent the logistics and operations of the warehouse being impacted during the working week
- They required the reporting of accurate information of stock levels at all locations within the warehouse
Why RGIS?
A leading Spanish retailer in the European beauty industry, with operations and stores in all European countries, required RGIS to complete a full inventory of all stock held in their central warehouse.
Our Solutions
RGIS worked with the beauty retailer to complete a full wall-to-wall count of the central warehouse:
RGIS provided over 80 auditors, including an experienced Supervisor and six Team Leaders over three days (Friday to Sunday), all with experience in warehouse environments – picking, pallets, bins, boxes, automatic wardrobes and bands
RGIS employees recounted, checked and/or audited around 20% of the inventory
The recount was completed by RGIS employees, whilst the checking and auditing was completed by the customer's own staff
An external auditing company was also present at the inventory wall-to-wall count
Conducted further checks to confirm the accuracy of the count
Results
The beauty retailer found working with RGIS gave them:
An understanding of their stock items and their locations within the warehouse
The ability to redistribute stock items out to stores where required
Satisfaction that the count was completed within the required time frame

Conclusion
Gave the customer confidence that the data received was now accurate, and validated by internal and external checks completed throughout the process.
