Building a Machine Learning Model to Predict Sales for a Paint Manufacturer
A leading paints manufacturer transformed its sales forecasting accuracy by developing a custom Machine Learning (ML) model. The solution analyzed customer behavior, product trends, and real-time market data to predict SKU-level sales across multiple product categories. With this ML-driven system, the company improved sales forecasting precision by up to 80%, enabling smarter production planning, inventory optimization, and better decision-making.
Client Vision
The paints manufacturer aimed to modernize its demand forecasting and sales prediction system. Manual forecasting based on historical data was no longer reliable due to market fluctuations, seasonal trends, and evolving customer preferences.
Their goal was to build a custom Machine Learning model that could:
- Analyze vast amounts of sales and market data in real-time
- Predict SKU-level sales across multiple product categories with high accuracy
- Enable smarter production planning and inventory management
The vision was clear — leverage AI and ML to move from reactive sales planning to data-driven forecasting and optimize business growth.

Business Overview & Requirement
The client faced critical challenges affecting their ability to forecast and plan efficiently
- •Manual and Inaccurate Forecasting: Traditional spreadsheet-based predictions were prone to human error and lacked real-time adaptability.
- •Limited Visibility on New Product Sales: Newly launched paints and prototype SKUs had little or no historical data for accurate forecasting.
- •Data Skewness from APIs: API-driven data sources showed inconsistencies and skewness that disrupted model training.
- •Overstocking and Stockouts: Poor forecasting led to excess inventory or missed demand opportunities, affecting profitability.
The client required a custom-built ML model capable of:
- ✅ Accurately predicting SKU-level sales using structured and unstructured data
- ✅Handling missing or skewed data for better reliability
- ✅Integrating seamlessly with ERP and inventory management systems
- ✅Continuously learning and improving with new data inputs
Solutions
Developed a robust ML system trained on multi-source data to forecast product-level sales and trends accurately.
Built custom APIs to fetch balanced, up-to-date data, mitigating skewness and improving prediction reliability.
Used existing SKU similarities to forecast prototype sales, even in the absence of past data.
Created a visual dashboard for real-time insights into sales patterns, allowing business leaders to make fast, data-driven decisions.
Enabled model retraining and supervised learning to ensure the model evolves with changing market dynamics.
Comprehensive AI/ML Solution
Data Collection & Cleaning
Gathered historical sales data, product attributes, regional demand, and seasonal patterns from multiple APIs and ERP systems. Custom-built APIs were developed to extract balanced, current data and remove skewness.
Feature Engineering
Designed domain-specific features such as color category, packaging type, and distribution region to improve model accuracy.
Predictive Model Development
Built and trained a custom ML model leveraging regression algorithms and ensemble methods to predict SKU-level sales.
Prototype Sales Prediction
Applied transfer learning and similarity-based inference to estimate sales for newly developed or prototype paints, even with limited historical data.
Integration & Visualization
Integrated the ML model into the client’s internal dashboard to provide real-time sales forecasts and performance tracking.
Continuous Model Optimization
Implemented supervised retraining loops to refine accuracy using newly generated sales data each quarter.
Challenges
Predicting New and Prototype Part Sales
The absence of historical data for new SKUs made it difficult to train traditional models. To overcome this, we leveraged shared characteristics between existing and new SKUs for similarity-based predictions.
Skewed Data from APIs
The client’s API data exhibited uneven distributions. Our team built a custom API layer to rebalance and normalize incoming data streams for better model training
Integration Complexity
Synchronizing model outputs with the client’s ERP and reporting systems required extensive API and middleware development.
Data Volume & Real-Time Updates
Managing large datasets while ensuring timely model updates was a significant technical challenge. We optimized the pipeline for scalable performance.
Model Interpretability
The client needed transparent insights, not just predictions. We implemented explainable AI (XAI) to visualize key factors influencing sales.
