We are thrilled to announce the extension of our partnership with ScotMid Co-op, Scotland's largest independent cooperative. This renewed contract underscores our mutual commitment to reducing waste and enhancing operational efficiency for another four years.

Since 2021, we have deployed WasteInsight at ScotMid and observed notable enhancements in core metrics like sell-through and recovery. This progress is a manifestation of the strong collaborative spirit that exists between our teams, which has been instrumental in driving measurable outcomes.

"We are very excited to continue our work with ScotMid Co-op," said Kieran O’Brien, Client Director, Retail Insight. "We have been able to significantly reduce food waste tonnage year-on-year and are enthusiastic about our enhanced roadmap designed to further improve performance."

Our cloud-based software solution, WasteInsight, ensures that ScotMid 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 landfill.

“Our work with Retail Insight has been pivotal in reducing waste," said Dan Macnamara, Head of Category, ScotMid Co-op. "Whilst the product has been transformative, the team we work with has been a breath of fresh air. They have constantly supported us to get closer to our business operations and challenges.

The retail industry is in a constant state of flux, but our commitment to sustainability and efficiency remains unwavering. As we continue our partnership with ScotMid Co-op, we look forward to achieving greater reductions in waste, improvements in efficiency, and making a positive impact on the environment.
