You cannot sell what nobody can find.
GlobeRanger keeps a true record of stock at item level across distribution centres, stores and stockrooms, and the evidence trail for every item that never sold. It keeps working where there is no network.
The stock file says one thing. The stockroom says another.
Decathlon tags more than 600 million products a year and reports inventory accuracy of 99.9 percent at key sites, up from 86 to 90 percent before. The method is settled. What still varies is what a chain can evidence about its own stock:
- Which item is in which store, in which size, right now
- Which returns went back into sellable stock and which did not
- What happened to everything that never sold
A missing size is a lost sale that no report records. A wrong stock figure sends the wrong replenishment. And an item that cannot be traced cannot be evidenced later, which since July 2026 is the expensive part.
GlobeRanger reads the tags already on your goods and keeps one record of where each item is and which state it is in. Stock that leaves a zone, or a return that never re-entered the count, raises an exception.
It runs at the edge, so a stockroom, a back office or a yard with no coverage keeps a true record with no live connection, and writes into the systems you already run.

Proven where the demands are the same.
Two operations that count branded goods the way a fashion chain has to.
Spirits and Premium Beverage
Beam Suntory: branded stock counted where it actually sits.
Jim Beam tags every barrel from filling through maturation across the Kentucky distilleries and warehouses, validated automatically instead of counted by hand. The result is one current record of branded stock, wherever it sits. A fashion DC has the same job at a higher item count and a shorter season.
Intralogistics
Daisy Brand: readers that move with the fleet.
Daisy Brand put RFID readers on the forklifts across two distribution centres, so the vehicles that move the stock also record it, with no fixed readers at every location. In a fashion DC the same idea covers receiving, put-away and despatch without fitting out the whole building.
How a fashion retail programme starts.
No fashion retailer runs GlobeRanger today. The first one will define what this product does in the industry, and that definition is made in the boot camp, on one real operation, rather than borrowed from another sector.
Demo call
13 or 26 minutesA video call with the GlobeRanger team. One question: does GlobeRanger fit your operation?
Bootcamp
1 to 3 daysCreditedOne to three days on site. We work out whether it starts in the DC, in the stockroom or on returns, and what a pilot would cover.
Pilot
6 to 12 weeksA trial run on your own use case, on one distribution centre, one store cluster or one product group. GlobeRanger proves that it works in your operation, not on a slide.
Full rollout
2 to 3 yearsThe rollout across sites, scoped and priced on what boot camp and pilot made concrete.
Retail operations owns the problem, supply chain joins early because the DC sets the item record, and sustainability reporting joins by the second stage, because the evidence for unsold goods is now their obligation as much as yours.
The first step costs 13 minutes.
