Merchandise and Assortment Planning

Buyer’s Toolbox offers a unique combination of ease of use and advanced functionality at an affordable price point.

Buyer’s Toolbox can be implemented in just a few weeks, including data conversion, installation, data interfaces and end-user training.

Buyer’s Toolbox costs less to maintain and update and is more powerful and stable than a seemingly “free” collection of Excel sheets. It allows the planner unparalleled control over the mundane detail and exceptions of any detailed plan.

Buyer’s Toolbox is more affordable than a traditional planning package, is faster to implement and easier to use - it comes ready to use, with prebuilt screens, workflows, reports, formulas and system interfaces.

Buyer’s Toolbox is more flexible than any home-grown planning system. It brings the results of over 50 person-years of continuous software development and comparable depth in Merchandise Planning to every single user - from a national chain to a privately held independent.

Buyer’s Toolbox is one of the most popular packages on the market and has already been installed in over 150 retail chains worldwide .
