A critical issue in inventory management is having accurate and timely information on stock levels. Therefore advantage should be taken of technologies that can reduce the impact of counterfeits, expired products and misplaced products. One such group of technologies is the internet of things (IoT). This research develops an architecture that uses IOT technologies as enablers for detecting expired products, counterfeit products, stock levels and misplaced products for inventory management in retail enterprises. The model uses extensible messaging presence protocol (XMPP), radio frequency identification (RFID) and twitter.
