Abstract

The commercial sector has evolved since it has increased by 1.24% compared to the 2022 period; however, automotive trade decreased by 2.16%. This behavior happened since the economy in 2022 was affected by the continuity of social demonstrations. This research analyzes and studies the distribution and inventory management of a warehouse using the ABC, Slotting, and E0Q tools to increase productivity in the dispatch area; this has a technical gap of 55% with respect to the sector, which currently has productivity of 2.9. Through the implementation of the proposed model, it was possible to reorganize the warehouse, optimize the stock to meet the demand, and achieve the target objectives, since the productivity increased by 43.79%, the operational efficiency increased by 65%, the Stock breaks were reduced by 63% and returns of wrong products decreased by 6.2%. It should be noted that the results obtained were validated by a software called Arena and an economic evaluation.
