Intelligent Grocery Ordering Automation

What is Shelf Engine?

Shelf Engine offers a solution designed to address the challenge of accurately ordering highly perishable grocery items. By utilizing intelligent forecasting, the system analyzes a store's daily sales data combined with real-world factors such as local events, holidays, and weather patterns. This analysis enables the generation of precise, profit-maximizing orders for each product on a daily basis, aiming to significantly reduce spoilage for items like deli sandwiches, fresh juice, and bread.

The platform completely automates the ordering process, submitting optimized orders directly to suppliers without requiring manual intervention like SKU scanning or overriding suggestions. This automation helps retailers minimize costly stockouts, thereby improving shopper loyalty and increasing sales potential. Furthermore, by accurately predicting customer demand, Shelf Engine assists grocers in reducing shrink and associated food waste, contributing positively to both the bottom line and environmental sustainability.
