It means first in first out and it is a method for inventory management. The first material/semi-finished/finished product which is entered to the warehouse should be the first to leave the warehouse. It is important for cash-flow, stock level optimization and product freshness.

FIFO  stands for first-in, first-out. An asset-management and valuation method in which the assets produced or acquired first are sold, used or disposed of first. or in simple words FIFO is  inventory valuation method that assumes that the goods  are sold or material are issued in order in which they are purchased. The FIFO flow concept is a logical one for a business to follow, since selling off the oldest goods first reduces the risk of obsolescence.
