It can be expected that companies selling perishable goods have a higher inventory turnover than companies selling nonperishable goods.

Perishable goods have a shorter shelf life and limited expiration date, which means they need to be sold quickly before they become unsellable. This results in a higher inventory turnover rate for companies selling perishable goods. Nonperishable goods have a longer shelf life, and typically fewer sales, resulting in a lower inventory turnover rate.
