Description

Food Waste: Retailer Updates on the Scaling of QR codes with embedded date codes.

Improving the visibility to the expiry date for perishable products in grocery retailing can transform compliance, while improving brand equity, share, loyalty, OSA and sales.

Further, it can boost productivity and reduce food waste.

In April 2025, the food waste working group heard updates from Mercadona, Woolworths Australia, Tesco, and Norgesgruppen and the lessons learnt on the journey so far, and their next steps

In our 2026 meeting, we will hear updates from these retailers and then other retailers inspired by their journey.

This meeting is for retailers, producers and academics only
