Wawa is implementing machine learning-based forecasting and replenishment technology in its 1,100 convenience stores to enhance fresh food management, as announced in July. Partnering with Relex Solutions, the initiative aims to automate processes and minimize spoilage, thereby optimizing Wawa’s popular foodservice program during its expansion efforts. This move aligns with Wawa’s goal of reaching 1,800 stores by 2030 and ensures high standards of freshness and availability. Other retailers like Circle K and Casey’s are also utilizing Relex’s solutions to enhance their inventory management.
