Forecasting
Size curves from real demand

Backorders & Pre-orders
Bridge the gap when a size breaks
If a top size does run out, backorders with clear ship dates keep the sale — and the customer.

Why apparel inventory is hard
01
Core styles must never stock out
Your basics are your subscription revenue — customers come back for the same legging or tee. One stockout in a top size and that repeat purchase happens somewhere else.
02
Depth is a guessing game
Same style, twelve sizes: order flat and you drown in XS while L sells out. The size curve has to come from data, not last season’s memory.
03
MOQs fight your cash flow
Suppliers want big runs; your bank account wants small ones. Timing reorders against minimums and lead times is a monthly puzzle.
04
Promos bend the baseline
Steady daily demand until BFCM triples it. If your restock math doesn’t see the spike coming, January starts with empty shelves or a stuffed warehouse.
This is the week Fabrikatör replaces.

Apparel questions, answered
Can Fabrikatör keep our evergreen styles permanently in stock?
That's its core job. It tracks sales velocity and supplier lead time per SKU and suggests reorders early enough that stock arrives before you run out — automatically, every week.
How does it deal with size-level demand differences?
Forecasts and restock suggestions run per variant, so a style's size curve is planned from how each size actually sells — no more flat orders across sizes.
We run big BFCM and seasonal promotions. Will the forecast keep up?
Yes — seasonality is learned from your history, and you can add planned marketing events so the spike is bought for in advance.
Does it work with multiple suppliers and lead times?
Every supplier has its own lead times and costs in Fabrikatör, and POs are grouped per supplier automatically when you turn suggestions into orders.
