What is a stock transfer?

A stock transfer is the internal movement of inventory from one storage location or warehouse to another – typically done to balance stock levels, reduce delivery times, or prepare for regional demand.

Stock transfers in eCommerce

In eCommerce, stock transfers help businesses strategically position inventory across multiple fulfillment centers. This ensures faster delivery and better stock availability. With everstox, stock transfers are managed digitally: inventory levels across all warehouse locations are monitored in real time, and stock is reallocated proactively – automated and scalable.

Example for a stock transfer

A fast-selling product in France is running low. everstox triggers a stock transfer from a German fulfillment center to replenish the French location – ensuring continuous order fulfillment without delay.
