Abstract: | The authors develop a category management model to aid retailers in the space constrained decisions of which products to stock and how much shelf space to allocate to those products. The model is formulated as a constrained optimization problem with two basic decision variables: assortment and allocation of space to the items in the assortment. The non-linearities in the objective function and the zero-one decision variables disallow a closed form solution. |
