A multi-location dispensary generates large amounts of data across sales, inventory, customers, employees, and compliance systems. Without a centralized structure, teams may spend more time merging reports than using them. A well-designed data warehouse should create one reliable source of truth while preserving store-level detail.

## Items

### 1. [1. Sales and Transaction Performance](https://listium.com/@caseym3/151247/what-a-multi-location-dispensary-data-warehouse-should-track/0/1-sales-and-transaction-performance)

- text:
  > Track core retail metrics across every location, including:
  > 
  > net sales; transaction count; average ticket; discounts; refunds and voids; sales by category and product.
  > 
  > A strong \[dispensary management software\](https://indicaonline.com/business-type/multi-location-operator/) setup should make it possible to compare company-wide performance while still drilling down to individual stores.

### 2. [2. Inventory and Product Movement](https://listium.com/@caseym3/151247/what-a-multi-location-dispensary-data-warehouse-should-track/5/2-inventory-and-product-movement)

Item ID: `5`

- text: A data warehouse should show not only how much inventory exists, but how efficiently it moves. Track: stock on hand; inventory turnover; days of supply; stockouts; aging inventory; transfers between locations; inventory adjustments. This helps operators identify overstock, shortages, and products that perform differently across stores.

### 3. [3. Customer and Loyalty Data](https://listium.com/@caseym3/151247/what-a-multi-location-dispensary-data-warehouse-should-track/2/3-customer-and-loyalty-data)

Item ID: `2`

- text: Customer data can reveal whether locations are building repeat business. Useful metrics include: new versus returning customers; purchase frequency; average spend; loyalty participation; reward redemptions; cross-store shopping behavior. The goal is to understand customer value across the network, not just at one register.

### 4. [4. Store and Staff Performance](https://listium.com/@caseym3/151247/what-a-multi-location-dispensary-data-warehouse-should-track/8/4-store-and-staff-performance)

- text: Track operational KPIs that explain why stores perform differently. Include: sales per labor hour; labor cost as a percentage of sales; employee transaction volume; discount activity; manager overrides; store-level profitability. These metrics can help headquarters separate market differences from operational problems.

### 5. [5. Compliance and Data Quality](https://listium.com/@caseym3/151247/what-a-multi-location-dispensary-data-warehouse-should-track/9/5-compliance-and-data-quality)

Item ID: `9`

- text: A centralized warehouse should also monitor whether the underlying data is reliable. Track: reporting exceptions; missing transactions; duplicate products; inventory discrepancies; state-specific compliance fields; stale integrations. A data warehouse is only valuable when the information inside it is complete, consistent, and current.
