Retail & grocery
Keep fresh on the shelf and off the shrink report.
Fresh departments live and die by shelf life. Store orders, deliveries, markdowns and shrink each sit in a different system, and the buyer often sees them a day late. Terri connects store, warehouse, supplier and transportation data into one live model, so the next order, markdown and truck are decided on what’s really there.
What changes every day
Supplier quality and code dates vary load by load. Weather, promotions and holidays swing demand by store. A late truck empties a shelf, and an early one fills the backroom.

Where the day breaks, and what handles it
Fresh demand swings by store and by day.
Demand Sensing reads orders, history, promotions and seasonality in one model, by item and channel.
Short-dated product sits where it won’t sell.
Dynamic Allocation sends the shortest-life product where it will sell fastest.
Supplier quality varies load to load.
QC Platform records quality at receiving and traces every lot back to the supplier.
Every store needs something slightly different.
Build store-specific agents on Terri in hours: order suggestions, markdown timing, backroom alerts, all under the same rules.
