Why safety stock matters for merchants in Senegal

Cross-border logistics, customs and last-mile operations in Senegal introduce lead-time variability that pure rule-of-thumb formulas under-estimate. Using a service-level approach lets you size the buffer statistically, per SKU. Combine this tool with the reorder point calculator for Senegal to get both the buffer size and the trigger level.
