Cash flow is the quiet constraint behind retail margin planning: the cheapest option is rarely the one that frees the most working capital.

Why retail margin planning matters on the Nex 4

Specialist shops generally target a higher multiple than convenience channels.

Keeping a short internal note on retail margin planning for each SKU pays for itself the first time a dispute arises over the Nex 4.
