Abstract
Inventory management is a very important function in management especially for those
firms that invest heavily in inventory.
Inventory management generally looks at how best inventory (Raw materials, Work in
progress and Finished goods) can be planned, organized and controlled in an organization
so as to cut inventory cost and maximize its benefits towards the profitability and
efficiency of the business.
This is a research report of the research that was carried out on Uganda's Supermarkets
on how they handle inventory management and how it affects their profitability and
efficiency and how best it can be improved.
