Case Study: AWG improves produce quality with iFoodDS Quality Insights

How AWG improved the quality of produce they ship to their member stores using the Quality Insights solution from iFoodDS.

Associated Wholesale Grocers (AWG), a retail-focused, member-owned distribution wholesaler serving 3,200 retail stores from nine distribution centers across the U.S., wanted to improve the quality of produce shipped to its member stores. Quality is a key differentiator for AWG, so the team saw an opportunity to strengthen QC operations and gain better insights from the data they were already collecting. AWG worked with iFoodDS and its Quality Insights solution to address this need.

With iFoodDS, AWG’s produce inspectors, fresh directors, QC managers, and leadership teams saved significant time while getting more value from their quality data. The collaboration helped AWG improve produce quality coming out of and going into its warehouses, and also increased accountability and cohesion across QC teams.
