| dc.description.abstract | This internship report analyzes the inventory management practices of Indulge Food
and Beverage Limited (IFBL), a premium multi-brand food and beverage company
operating numerous outlets across Bangladesh. The purpose of this study is to evaluate
how structured inventory control systems contribute to operational efficiency, cost
management, and overall organizational performance.
The report is based on a three-month internship experience under the Finance and
Accounts Department, where responsibilities were closely aligned with inventory control
and operational monitoring. This report was prepared using both primary and secondary
data, and it includes the practical observations, data on the internal consumption, and
academic literature on inventory management. The report finds that inventory management in IFBL is a strategically organized plan
and not a simple operation plan. Existence of strong coordination of the finance and
kitchen activities and systematic monitoring of stocks and value-based classification
plays a great role in the cost discipline and profitability. The report concludes that effective inventory management at IFBL is not merely a
routine operational activity but a strategic function that directly impacts profitability and
working capital efficiency. Finally, several recommendations are provided to enhance
monitoring systems, improve forecasting accuracy, and strengthen overall inventory control practices to support sustainable growth in the competitive food and beverage industry of Bangladesh. | en_US |
