RESERVES AUX DOTATIONS, OUVERTURES OU REMODLINGS
This item appears in a list of 'critical products', in which list appear some very prosaic things like cleaning equipment, envelopes, wall charts, bins for the toilets etc. It is a supermarket management document. The word 'ouverture' appears next to many of the items in the list, as do the words 'Dotation' or 'Remodling' - quite randomly, it would seem.
The only thing I can think that 'ouverture' could mean here would be some sort of product launch or promotion. 'Remodling', a bizarre looking word, I am understanding to mean some sort of refurbishment, and 'dotations' provisions or allocations. As it is a list without much surrounding context, it all seems rather vague! Am trying to contact client for more info, but no luck as yet. Any help would be appreciated.

Oddly enough, this is where I find doing FR corsswords amazingly helpful: makes me think more laterally about the meaning of words!
As for 'dotation', haven't a clue, though you might be able to work it our from which items these are? Maybe it's something like things that need to be provided annually...
Can you tell how the 'réserves' is being used — or is it in fact 'réservés'? Does it seem to mean 'store room', or perhaps 'supplies / stores'?
