  "abstract": "We consider a fashion discounter that supplies any of its many branches with an integral multiple of lots whose size assortment structure stems from a set of many applicable lot-types. We design a column generation algorithm for the optimal approximation of the branch and size dependent demand by a supply using a bounded number of lot-types.",
