In a consignment agreement, a consignor supplies goods to a consignee, who sells them on the consignor's behalf. The consignee earns a commission from each sale and sends the remaining sales revenue to the consignor. The consignor retains ownership of the goods until they are sold.
The VMI process is a supply chain management strategy where a supplier manages the inventory at the customer's location. The inventory is owned either by the customer (VMI without consignment) or the supplier (VMI with consignment), but maintained by the supplier.
In a VMI solution, vendors actively manage the supply of inventory to target levels based on the buyer's forecast and actual consumption, while consignment inventory relates to inventory owned by the vendor but held at the buyer's warehouse with the buyer determining the inventory replenishment strategy.
Consigned inventory refers to items that are in the possession of one party, but remain the property of another party by mutual agreement. The process of consigned inventory follows steps between the buyer and seller.
