Abstract

In today's digital age, China's e-commerce industry is showing a vigorous development trend, with the market size continuing to expand and transaction volume repeatedly reaching new highs. In this context, effective inventory control methods play an irreplaceable key role in the stable operation of e-commerce enterprises, like the cornerstone of a building. This study focuses on industry-leading e-commerce websites such as JD.com and Alibaba, exploring in depth how they optimize their inventory systems in response to rapidly changing customer demands and numerous logistics and distribution difficulties. Through a comprehensive comparison and review of existing inventory management technologies, the application of cutting-edge technologies such as multi warehouse coordinated management and AI driven precise prediction is highlighted. The study also provided practical and feasible solutions for common problems such as stockouts and inventory backlog by analyzing actual business processes, which strongly proves that optimizing inventory management can significantly improve operational efficiency, promote the e-commerce industry to enhance competitiveness, and achieve sustainable growth.
