Case Study: Meny Værløse reduces food waste with Upshop

Meny Værløse Turning Food Waste into Profit

Meny Værløse, a Danish grocery store, faced the challenge of meeting an ambitious national goal to drastically reduce food waste. Their manual, resource-intensive processes for tracking and managing expiry dates made this goal difficult to achieve. To overcome this, the store partnered with Upshop and implemented its digital Expiry Management solution.

By utilizing Upshop's platform, which integrated label printers for efficient markdowns, the store streamlined its operations. As a result, Meny Værløse achieved a 37% reduction in food waste and saved 15 hours per week on labor. Upshop’s solution also provided valuable data insights, making it easy for staff to identify products at risk and significantly improving onboarding for new employees.
