Supermarkets, food retail, fresh departments, and grocers operate in a sector where waste reduction, assortment optimization, customer flow management, promotion planning, and shelf management must be simultaneously optimized. AI agents automate the waste reduction, assortment optimization, and promotion planning flows.
Waste Management and Fresh Planning
An AI agent manages the fresh planning flow: daily orders for fresh products are automatically calculated based on expected demand (day of week, weather, promotions, local events). Products approaching their expiry date are automatically flagged for promotional markdown. Waste is automatically registered and analyzed per product category.
- Fresh daily order: automatically calculated on expected demand
- Shelf life: automatically monitored per article
- Markdown: automatically triggered on approaching expiry
- Waste: automatically registered and analyzed
Shelf Management and Planogram Compliance
Shelf management and planogram compliance are essential for supermarkets for category presentation and supplier agreements. An AI agent automatically monitors shelf occupancy per planogram: out-of-stocks are automatically flagged. Shelf space allocation is automatically optimized per category based on revenue per m².
- Planogram: automatically monitored per shelf unit
- Out-of-stock: automatically signaled to employee
- Shelf space: automatically optimized per category
- Supplier: automatically reported on shelf performance
Match-AI implements AI agents for supermarket formulas, food retail chains, fresh specialists, grocers, organic supermarkets, convenience stores, and combined food retail companies that want to automate their waste reduction, assortment optimization, and promotion planning.
