Store Optimization Checklist for Apparel Retail

This store optimization checklist is designed for apparel retail environments to evaluate leadership, customer service, merchandising, housekeeping, POS controls, stock management, and risk prevention. It covers morning briefings, team readiness and training, window and VM compliance, greeting standards, fitting room service, table and rail implementation, promotion execution, pricing accuracy, lighting and HVAC, maintenance follow-up, cleanliness, and daily floor walk sign-off. POS reviews include cash-up accuracy and workstation neatness. Stockroom standards, planograms, strategy visibility, markdown presentation, price adjustments, consolidations, replenishment, and size curves are assessed. Risk controls include refunds, SOH checks, security tagging, hazard counts, fire equipment, floor coverage, and a signed stock loss action plan with team understanding.
