We are thrilled to announce the renewal of our long-standing partnership with Co-op, one of the world’s largest consumer co-operatives. This marks our sixth year of collaboration, further solidifying our shared commitment to reducing food waste and promoting sustainability.

Since 2019, Retail Insight and Co-op have been working towards Co-op's ambitious sustainability goal of halving food waste by 2030. To this end, Co-op has signed a new multi-year WasteInsight contract, ensuring our continued partnership in the years to come.

"We are incredibly proud to continue to work with Co-op," said Kieran O’Brien, Client Director, Retail Insight. "Our shared vision for a more sustainable retail industry has been the cornerstone of our collaboration, and we look forward to driving further progress in the coming years."

Our cloud-based software solution, WasteInsight, ensures that Co-op are able to optimize their price reductions using a dynamic, data-led model. In doing so, they ensure that more ends up in shoppers’ baskets, reducing the amount that goes to waste.

“Retail Insight has been instrumental in helping us work towards our sustainability targets," said Nick Meagher, Head of Analytics & Insight, Co-op. "Their innovative WasteInsight solution is a central part of our strategy to reduce food waste, and we're excited about what we can achieve together in the future."

We are excited to support Co-op in this next phase of our relationship, and we believe that together, we can continue to push towards their 2030 targets.
