The leak
Move from margin hindsight to margin control.
Merchmix reduces the time between signal, decision and action. It connects demand, stock, intake, pricing and margin signals in real time, so finance can see where exposure is building, quantify the cost of waiting and move the right action into the right workflow before margin is gone.
Scenarios modelled
Model the cost of waiting.
Merchmix Intelligence forecasts the margin, cash and weeks-of-cover impact of each action, so finance can compare hold, chase, transfer, rebalance or markdown before teams commit.
Decision confidence
Act faster without relying on guesswork.
Merchmix turns live signals and scenario modelling into clear recommended actions, helping finance and trading teams choose the right move while there is still margin to protect.

Proof & credibility
Built by retailers who know where margin really leaks.
Merchmix was built by people who have worked inside brands like ASOS, M&S, Best & Less and SABA - buying, planning and trading real ranges, with real stock, real suppliers and real margin pressure.
That experience is built into the platform: fewer disconnected decisions, faster action on stock risk and clearer commercial control for finance.
