GAIN9: Elasticity AI - Unlocking Hidden Margins

In a past role at a major fashion group, we led a strategic initiative to improve profitability by designing a new discounting governance framework. By using AI to analyze price elasticity across Retail, Wholesale, and E-commerce, we enabled smart markdown management that preserved margins and optimized inventory value—proving that the biggest gains are found between silos.
