# FreshRetailNet-50K
## Dataset Overview
FreshRetailNet-50K is the first industrial-grade time series dataset in the fresh retail domain, comprises 50,000 store-products which have hourly sales amount for 90 days, and **features about 20% organically out-of-stock data**. It also includes additional important information such as discounts, holiday status and various weather situations. This dataset is an ideal benchmark for future researches on time series imputation and forecasting techniques.
- [Technical Report](It will be posted later.) - Discover the methodology and technical details behind FreshRetailNet-50K.
- [Github Repo](It will be posted later.) - Access the complete pipeline used to train and evaluate.
This dataset is ready for commercial/non-commercial use.
