Core vs. seasonal/fashion – core year round basic stock items (5 pocket jean, pique polo, pocket tee, underwear, etc.)

Implementation of E3 (replenishment system) determined that we were 25% out of stocks on core items – demand exceeded supply

Better margins on core products than seasonal/fashion
