Predictive analytics for fast moving item using nonlinear regresssion models

A supply chain and logistics company are trying to realign their stock placement in the warehouse based on the type of movement of the stock keeping units (SKU), fast moving or slow moving. This project is executed to construct a nonlinear regression models for order frequency per month of fast movi...
