Markdowns are a fact of life in apparel, with35% of unit volume moving at discounted pricing. Effective execution is critical, since sales late in the season depend on giving the customer a good deal, but most retailers currently rely on an inaccurate, labor-intensive process that falls dramatically short of achieving desired results. Using the traditional “red pen” markdown process, store associates can only complete three garments per minute with63% accuracy.
