P062| Bad shelf replenishment

Recently I have started to go shopping alternatively to two shops of a same retailer (one on my way from work to home, and the second nearby home). Both are same size, but key products of my shopping bag, bought on both have different remaining shelf life. In average the home nearby 1/2 days, while the other, typically 3/4.

Probably I’m wrong by I have some theories:

• GM has a different replenishment policy (she/he is buying bigger quantities)….prices are not different (and promotions are ON at the same time slot)!
• Shop with shorter shelf life has a higher rotation, and because the hub is aware usually sends shorter shelf life products
• …

…if you guess any additional reason your contibution will be highly appreciate (just comment this post!)
