Stock Expiry Se Kaise Bachein – Prevent Expired Inventory

Last updated:

Expired stock is wasted money. Here’s how to reduce it.

Core Rules

  1. FIFO/FEFO – First In, First Out. Or First Expiry, First Out. Sell oldest stock first.
  2. Track expiry – Note dates on items. Use an app with expiry alerts.
  3. Order right – Don’t overstock. Match order size to sales speed.
  4. Display – Put soon-to-expire items in front. Run small discounts.

Practical Tips

  • Milk, bread, snacks – Order for 2–3 days. Sell fast.
  • FMCG (biscuits, soap) – Check dates. Reorder before 70% sold.
  • Medicines – Strict FEFO. Use batch and expiry tracking.
  • Seasonal – Order less near season end.
