How supermarkets of the future can tackle food waste
Producing and selling food will become more environmentally responsible because sustainability and profitability both depend on the efficient use of resources.
Supermarkets of the near-future will have their business models radically re-shaped by innovations in-store, online and in the food industry supply chain. These technologies will be deployed in the battle for customers, but more than this, can also benefit the planet. This will be achieved by improving sustainability.
Producing and selling food will become more environmentally responsible because sustainability and profitability both depend on the efficient use of resources. To illustrate the rapid pace of change, agricultural demand today is 50% greater than it was just five years ago. This is placing enormous strain on agricultural resources because the land available for growing food is very limited.
