Boyner is a major department store group, known for its wide selection of brands across fashion, beauty, home goods and more. With a mix of owned labels and outside brands, the company serves millions of customers through large-format stores and various online retail channels.
Like many multi-brand retailers, Boyner operates in a complex environment with long buy cycles, large initial allocations and limited flexibility once stock hits stores. With so many products and store types, keeping inventory balanced and responsive was becoming harder.
The existing transfer planning system couldn’t keep up. Moving excess stock from low-performing stores to high-demand locations was slow and manual, often taking days to coordinate. Boyner needed a faster, more accurate way to handle replenishment and store transfers.
Next, Boyner rolled out invent.ai’s Transfers. Instead of relying on slow manual processes, the system uses AI to identify when and where inventory should move across stores and distribution centers. Transfer plans that used to take days now take under an hour, helping the company rebalance stock before issues grow.
Invent.ai’s tools were tailored to Boyner’s business model and give the team more flexibility to respond to changing demand—which is especially important in a seasonal retail environment. Throughout the process, invent.ai provided ongoing support and worked closely with Boyner to fine-tune the system.
Boyner saw results within the first four months of working with invent.ai, including:
By automating key parts of inventory planning, Boyner continues to serve customers more reliably while running a leaner operation. The partnership with invent.ai gives the retailer tools that align with how it operates—and the agility to adapt as the market evolves.
