Coop

Toronto, ON, September 20, 2023–As the next step on Coop Swedens journey towards zero waste and more efficient work processes, the food retailer has entered into a Sweden-wide framework agreement for Invafresh’s solution for a waste prevention system for deli counters.

During the last few years, Coop has put a great deal of effort into their deli counters, with initiatives ranging from major assortment to improved supply chain managementCoop has also looked into solutions that can improve the daily work for the personnel on the counters while simultaneously reducing the food waste and this is where Invafresh comes into the picture.

Invafresh’s solution helps the personnel work more efficiently and keep track of all areas of the deli counter, while also ensuring that all food safety requirements are met. Furthermore, the system alerts personnel if there are any products on the counter that are at risk of becoming waste so that the personnel can take proactive, preventative, measures.

For Coop, this collaboration is an important part in our work to keep developing our deli counters and a prerequisite for enabling us to offer our customers the markets best deli-experience.

“We are happy that Coop chose Invafresh in their journey towards the deli counter of the future. I personally have experience from working in a deli counter and know how much time and effort is spent on administrative work to guarantee food safety as well as reduce waste, and I know that Invafresh will be of significant help here."
