Accurate retail stock counts with minimal disruption

Independent stocktakes for single stores, multi-site retailers, stockrooms and off-site storage, planned around your trading hours and reporting requirements.

Retail counts built around your store

We work with a wide range of retail stock, including fashion, footwear, gifts, garden-centre products, convenience goods, forecourt lines, spare parts and general merchandise. Our independent retail stocktakers can use barcode scanners, manual sheets or a combined method, followed by a clear same-day report.

Retail stocktakes can include

  • Full wall-to-wall store counts
  • Shopfloor, stockroom and off-site locations
  • Barcode scanning or manual recording
  • Location-by-location control
  • Periodic, year-end and one-off stocktakes
  • Outputs structured around your inventory file

Helping the count run smoothly

Good preparation improves both pace and accuracy. We can advise on separating stock, identifying excluded items, dealing with damaged barcodes and arranging access to high or restricted locations.
