Yup as slow moving goods are big things like furniture, that you do not buy regularly, while I tend to buy SD cards every 4 months to keep my data safe.

It is FMCG.  

I thought FMCG was basically products that are considered daily necessities, things that are purchased often just to live.

PCs are now FCMG, too. So why not these memory devices?

It's been around in accountancy for ages, well nto ages last 20 or so years in that it separated white goods and home furnishings for things that stock turned over quickly.

Food is separate, it was things like clothing in the past

Effectively you look at the stock turn over ratio in your management accounts and anything that is destined to leave your shelves within a day is VFMCG and then upto a month FMCG then it turns into normal stock, then it turns into Slow stock. Like Mr Lee's Piano stores in Hong Kong, never seen ANYBODY in those shops wonder how they survive (I sometimes go in and play with their guitars but never buy anything).

i would consider those memory devices as FCMG, the turnover for these devices are very quick especially if your computer has very large capacities. I remembered killing half a bundle of dvdrs when backing up. On average, I tend to be using a bundle, 100 dvds, every 4-6 months depending in that quarter's download

Listen bro, on a CV you can pretty much define anything in the way that looks best on the CV.  

I would definitely call them FMCG if it helped me land a job that I'm qualified for and motivated to do.
