What does Stock Outs mean?

In the context of shipping, stock outs can occur when a shipment of goods is delayed or lost, or when there is a supply chain disruption that prevents the timely delivery of goods. Stock outs can have a significant impact on business operations, including lost sales, reduced customer satisfaction, and damage to brand reputation.
