Invafresh has expanded its partnership with Federated Co-operatives Limited (FCL) to help optimize production planning and waste reduction initiatives across its network of food stores.

Owned by independent retail co-operatives from across Western Canada, FCL, selected Invafresh’s cloud-native Fresh Retail Platform to improve product availability and freshness, enable associate productivity and department level profitability, and enhance consumer trust and loyalty.

“Invafresh has been a trusted technology supplier to us for many years, and we are thrilled to deliver their production planning solution to our retail co-operative members. Given the maturity of this solution and Invafresh’s customer-driven delivery model, we are excited to have commenced store level deployment which will deliver material financial benefits to our members through 2022,” stated Dave Pullar, director, Fresh Food at FCL.

Invafresh is deployed in more than 25,000 grocery stores spanning a global reach of 15 countries to provide software platforms for omnichannel demand forecasting, merchandising, replenishment, sustainability and compliance.
