Gestión de inventarios y su incidencia en la liquidez del comercial “Agrozamo” del Cantón Chone.

Abstract

Proper inventory management allows companies to have greater control over their stock, reduce costs due to obsolescence or excess products, and improve both operational efficiency and financial records. This study focuses on the design of a manual inventory management model to reduce associated and storage costs that affect the liquidity of the Agrozamo retailer, given that excessive product accumulation has generated financial inconsistencies. The research used the documentary method, obtaining theoretical information on the variables, supporting the relationship between overstocking and its impact on the retailer's liquidity. Similarly, the descriptive method was used to observe the company's current situation with a mixed approach combining quantitative and qualitative aspects. Instruments were also used to obtain information through employee surveys. To collect the results, instruments were used to measure the reliability and consistency of the information using the statistical tool SPSS v29, and the surveys were also tabulated. The results obtained highlight poor inventory management, which impacts the commercial liquidity, making it necessary to implement an improvement tool to efficiently manage stock. Based on the results, a proposal for improvement is presented, including an inventory manual for Agrozamo Commercial.
