Context The dataset contains historical product demand for a manufacturing company with footprints globally. The company provides thousands of products within dozens of product categories. There are four central warehouses to ship products within the region it is responsible for. Since the products are manufactured in different locations all over the world, it normally takes more than one month to ship products via ocean to different central warehouses. If forecasts for each product in different central with reasonable accuracy for the monthly demand for month after next can be achieved, it would be beneficial to the company in multiple ways. Content **Historical Product Demand.csv** - CSV data file containing product demand for encoded product id's ## Acknowledgements This dataset is all real-life data and products/warehouse and category information encoded. Inspiration Is it possible to make forecasts for thousands of products (some of them are highly variable in terms of monthly demand) for the the month after next?
