Why Fresh Matters

Fresh departments account for more than 30% of grocery and convenience store traffic and play a critical role in customer loyalty, but they are also the most difficult to manage. Static production methods lead to waste, lost sales, and inconsistent quality, while rising pressure to reduce shrink, meet food safety standards, and control labor costs makes operational excellence in fresh a business imperative.

How It Works

  • Generate Precision Forecasts for Every Item: Move beyond daily guesses. Our AI-driven models forecast production needs at the individual item and recipe level, accounting for sales history, promotions, seasonality, and even weather to ensure you produce exactly what you'll sell.
  • Execute Flawlessly with Guided Production: Empower your kitchen teams with a mobile "digital cookbook" that provides clear batch sizes and step-by-step instructions. Eliminate guesswork and ensure consistent quality and portion control across all locations and shifts.
  • Ensure Automatic Compliance and Accurate Labeling: Eliminate labeling errors and compliance risks. The system automatically generates accurate nutrition facts, ingredient statements, and allergen labels from your centralized recipes, ensuring every package meets regulatory requirements.
  • Create a Self-Learning Production System: Close the loop between planning and performance. Track yields and compare them against forecasts, feeding this data back into our AI models to continuously improve forecast accuracy and reduce waste over time.
