Inventory Shrinkage in Barrel Tracking
Definition
Without digital tracking of barrel locations and contents, shrinkage goes undetected in aging inventory.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: 2-5% annual inventory shrinkage (AUD 100,000+ for typical winery)[1][2]
- Frequency: Continuous during aging periods (6-24 months)
- Root Cause: No real-time lot/barrel tracking
Why This Matters
The Pitch: Australian wineries suffer 2-5% inventory shrinkage (AUD 100,000+ for mid-size operations) due to manual barrel tracking. Automation with lot tracking prevents losses.
