Superstore Sales Dashboard

Project Context

This dashboard tracks sales patterns across 165 countries and 17 product categories over 4 years. The goal was to identify where revenue comes from, where it's growing, and where potential risks might be hiding.

Key Findings

Seasonal sales pattern

The trend chart reveals consistent seasonality across all categories—Q4 peaks driven by holiday shopping, followed by Q1 drops. Overall trajectory is upward: both peaks and valleys increase year-over-year, indicating healthy business growth despite quarterly fluctuations.

Geographic concentration

USA dominates with $2.3M in sales (18% of total revenue), followed by Australia at $925K. The map visualization highlights this concentration—top markets account for disproportionate revenue share.

Product performance

Phones lead at $1.7M total sales. The category breakdown (Furniture, Office Supplies, Technology) shows Technology has the highest seasonal swings while Furniture maintains more stable quarters.

Customer distribution

Top 5 customers contribute $176K combined (1.4% of total), indicating no dangerous over-reliance on individual accounts.

Dashboard Design

Structured for executive overview (KPIs) with drill-down capabilities. Interactive filters allow exploration by date range, geography, and category. The quarterly view exposes seasonal patterns that annual summaries would mask.
