A fresh approach

Fresh is fundamentally different and more complex than center store. Drive results with the right tool for the job.

Center store data

Consistent UPCs, pack sizes, and discrete units are clean and predictable

Fresh department data

Multiple factors shift daily, making data highly variable and hard to predict

Center store merchandising

Biannual planograms are mostly static with some promotions

Fresh merchandising 

Fresh displays shift constantly to accommodate variability, seasonality, and quality

Center store workflows

Consistent packaging and barcodes make inventory management straight-forward

Fresh team workflows

Teams need to manage a wide variety of item types, including hyper-perishables and random weights

    Case Study

Afresh and Alvarez & Marsal CRG Partner to Save U.S. Value Grocer Gain an Estimated $2.7M Annually
