I have worked as an intern in ACI Logistics for three months in the lifestyle style department. This department is operated to sell lifestyle products like clothes and shoes for men and women and jewelry and accessories for women. I had the responsibilities to prepare sales report, stock report, keep a balance of warehouse stock, making Purchase Orders and Stock Transfer Orders. I also had to communicate with outlet managers about many issues of stocks and outlet arrangements.
The company should increase the smoothness of the payment procedure to its suppliers so that they can have their payment early and can provide their products more efficiently. Beside this lifestyle, the department can add some more products to its departmental offerings like many plastic items that daily necessaries. | en_US |
