Case Study: a UK-based retailer of imported confectionery and sodas cuts perishable write-offs by 60% with Amasty's custom Magento 2 module

UK-based Retailer of Imported Confectionery and Sodas cuts perishable write-offs by 60% with Amasty

The client, a UK-based retailer of imported confectionery and sodas, faced significant challenges managing its perishable inventory on Magento 2. Their platform could not handle multiple expiration dates per SKU, leading to manual stock checks, operational errors, and a high risk of shipping expired goods. They engaged Amasty to develop a custom Magento 2 module to solve this business-critical issue.

Amasty implemented a custom module that introduced expiration-aware inventory management. The solution automated FIFO stock deduction, provided customers with freshness visibility, and created an alert system for upcoming expirations. This gave the client full control over their perishable goods, reduced the risk of shipping expired stock, and cut product returns. The new module led to a 60% reduction in inventory write-offs.
