In MorningNewsBeat Podcast, CEO Fields Outlines Existential Threat of Out-of-Stocks to Food Retailers

 SALT LAKE CITY, February 20, 2020  – MorningNewsBeat Content Guy Kevin Coupe interviewed Randy Fields, Chairman and CEO of Park City Group (NASDAQ: PCYG) and ReposiTrak, for a special podcast series on the existential threat that out-of-stocks (OOS) pose to the grocery industry in the era of omnichannel commerce. MorningNewsBeat provides news and commentary on the retail industry. ReposiTrak is the industry leader in solutions for stock replenishment, compliance, sourcing, food safety and risk management in the retail supply chain.

Well-known in the retail industry for his insights on emerging trends, Coupe interviewed Fields for a special five-part podcast series titled “Solving the Existential Out-of-stock Challenge.”  The series explores why the age-old problem of out-of-stocks has taken on more urgency for traditional food retailers now that Amazon has entered the grocery market.

On the podcast Fields discusses in depth the consequences of products missing on store shelves to the retailers’ business as Amazon expands its home delivery services as well as the steps that retailers and suppliers need to take to fix problem. “Out-of-stocks drive consumers out of the stores,” Fields tells Coupe. “Retailers are going to have to get suppliers motivated and focused on fixing the out-of-stock problem at a particular store.”

ReposiTrak OOS Management Solution has cut out-of-stocks by average of 46 percent for 70 percent of vendor using that solution in under three months. The solution helps retailers and suppliers reduce out-of-stocks by using proven technology and proprietary algorithms that identify out-of-stocks at the store, stock-keeping unit (SKU) and route level. The ReposiTrak expert team then works with retailers and suppliers to take actions to address out-of-stocks.
