To reduce food waste at its stores, the Albert Heijn supermarket chain partned with Wasteless to implement AI-based dynamic discounting at its stores. The algorithm automatically reduces products in price based on their sell-by date, with a higher discount for items that need to be sold soonest, taking into account historical sales data, inventory levels and more. This encourages customers to buy those items at a higher risk of being thrown away.
