RETAIL STORE SALES

OPTIMIZATION
PRESENTED BY : SEEMA M
INTRODUCTION

• Retail stores handle large amounts of sales data daily. Optimizing sales
operations can lead to increased profits and better customer
satisfaction. This project focuses on identifying sales patterns,
optimizing product placement, and forecasting future trends.
PROJECT OBJECTIVES

• Identify patterns in customer purchases.


• Optimize product placement and inventory management.
• Predict future sales trends using forecasting techniques
TOOLS & TECHNOLOGIES

• Python: Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA), forecasting.


• Power BI: Sales visualization and trend analysis.
• Excel: Data cleaning and preprocessing.
• MySQL: Data storage and querying
PROBLEM STATEMENT

• Retail businesses face challenges in understanding customer purchase


behavior, optimizing inventory management, and predicting future sales
trends. Inefficient product placement, improper stock levels, and unoptimized
discount strategies can lead to revenue loss and reduced profitability.
• This project aims to analyze retail sales data to uncover key sales patterns,
identify top-performing products and stores, optimize inventory management,
and forecast future sales trends. By leveraging data analytics and
visualization tools, the goal is to enable data-driven decision-making to
improve overall business performance.

DATASET OVERVIEW

The dataset used in this project is the Superstore Sales dataset, which includes the following key columns:
• Product ID: Unique identifier for each product.
• Category: Product category (e.g., Furniture, Office Supplies).

• Sales: The total sales value for the product sold.
• Discount: The discount applied to the product during the transaction.
• Profit: The profit made from the sale of the product.
DATA CLEANING

• Prepare the data for analysis by handling missing values, removing duplicates, and ensuring
consistency
• Removing Duplicates : Identified and removed duplicate rows to ensure data integrity.
• Handling Missing Values: Numerical columns (e.g. Sales, Profit) were filled with the mean or
median values.
• Categorical columns (e.g., Category) were filled with the mode to ensure consistency.
• Ensuring Data Consistency:
• Converted date columns into proper date time format.
• Checked for any outliers or incorrect data types and rectified them.
