Vendor Margin Negotiation

Our system of margin analysis and negotiation has saved Marginista’s clients millions of dollars. Through an in-depth review of account data and margin requests, we are able to identify the overcharges and renegotiate on your behalf from a position of strength. As one of our clients termed it, this is “Forensic Accounting” at its best!

Merchandise Planning

Owning the right mix of goods for maximum inventory turns without brand eroding mark-downs is the primary goal of merchandise planning. Part science, part art, this discipline is critical to driving profitability. Specific tools used include:

  • Design Planning Recommends
  • Distribution Recommends
  • Unit Plans

Calendar Systems

Falling off calendar is a sure way to erode internal margin and increase team conflict. Creating a master calendar with clear delineation of dates, deliverables and team member accountability is one of the easiest ways to avoid this setback. Calendars can be created for a single season or an entire year, or for a single division or a total brand.
