WHAT IS VMI?

Vendor-Managed Inventory (VMI) is a collaborative inventory management strategy where the supplier takes responsibility for maintaining optimal stock levels at the customer’s site. Using real-time data and demand forecasting, the supplier monitors inventory and makes restocking decisions—ensuring the right products are available when needed.
