You would be running a business at a loss when you have a large stock of expired of products in your store frequently. The thing is that people would not want to buy such products so it becomes a huge loss to the business. You can do the following to avoid such.

Start with buying products with long duration expiring date

Have a quick sales turnover

Don't store the products in areas that will quicken its expiration rate.

Greed is the main thing that lead people to loose there stock, it causes them to wait for initial prices to raise up and makes the normal price to fall

To avoid product overstock, you don't have to replace the product by buying a product with a long expiration date, whether a long expiration date product will be liked by customers, but you have to be able to calculate safety stock, as well as make sales and purchase estimates. You can also apply the FEFO method to value inventory.

You will first have to see what products are in high demand and what products are in less demand. You should only stock pile products that are in high demand to avoid issues of expiry.

You should check which products are in high demand and order them frequently. For products that are not so popular, order less. Otherwise, you will have a stock of expired products.
