No 830: Assesing the frequency and clauses of out-of-stock events through store scanner data

Anne-Sophie Bayle-Tourtoulou (), Gilles Laurent () and Sandrine Macé ()

Abstract: This paper aims to provide an answer to the question of out-of-stock events (OOS), their frequency, the sales losses they generate, and their causes. The authors provide two contributions. They describe a new sales-based measure of OOS computed on the basis of store-level scanner data and identify several of the main determinants of OOS. They also introduce a significant distinction between complete and partial OOS
