Target developed Proxima, a digital twin system for its middle-mile inventory, enabling simulation and testing of supply chain decisions before implementation, improving product availability and minimizing disruptions.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Retail Tech. Wire is Fusion42's founder-focused intelligence feed: each story is connected to the funds and startups it names — every one with a live profile on Raise or Scout — so founders can follow the capital and the momentum behind the headline rather than just the headline itself. Wire analysis is one of the live surfaces Arthur reasons over.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You have a new way to test supply chain moves before they hit live operations at scale. Target’s use of digital twins opens a path to reduce costly inventory errors and shelf outages immediately.
