Afresh

Introducing the Next Era of Fresh Buying Every grocer knows modernization is critical to staying competitive. But when it comes to Fresh buying, the tools that transformed the rest of retail simply haven’t worked. Even as technology advanced, Fresh data was too fragmented, too inconsistent, and too fast-changing for traditional systems to handle. That changes today. Together with our partners at Wakefern Food Corp., we’re proud to launch Afresh Fresh Buying, the first AI-powered solution built specifically for the pace and complexity of fresh food. Fresh Buying brings every critical signal, like forecasts, vendor performance, QA holds, and store demand into one connected platform that works at fresh speed. Here’s what it means for fresh buyers: ✅ A clear, prioritized plan for the day — focusing attention where it matters most. ✅ Real-time visibility across the supply chain — so teams can stay ahead of issues, not react to them. ✅ Instant, intelligent recommendations — adapting in minutes when conditions change. The result: fewer delays, less waste, and fresher food on shelves. Fresh buying finally has the technology it deserves. https://lnkd.in/ezsWR2Qi

We’re excited to celebrate a major milestone in our partnership with Albertsons Companies — one that’s reshaping what’s possible in fresh grocery. Afresh has officially expanded its intelligent Fresh Replenishment solution across every Albertsons fresh department. From bakery and deli to meat, seafood, and produce, this partnership is helping teams make smarter, faster, and more precise decisions across thousands of fresh items every day. Whether it’s custom cakes, flank steak, a busy deli bar, or fresh broccoli, our patent-pending AI and data modeling bring clarity to one of grocery’s toughest challenges — aligning what’s ordered, produced, and sold each day. This expansion represents more than just technology — it’s a leap forward in how grocery teams run fresh, setting a new standard for accuracy, efficiency, and sustainability across every department. 👉 Read the full announcement → https://lnkd.in/gPMypCvh
