What’s in the case study
Tha Challenges
To address the universal challenge of food waste, the grocery retailer wanted a view into how its time-and temperature-sensitive goods were transported and stored, aiming to improve its reputation for excellence by guaranteeing produce availability at peak freshness.
The Solutions
The Wiliot Intelligence Platform revolutionizes how grocery retailers monitor the temperature and location of their inventory, offering comprehensive insights down to the case level through automated, continuous monitoring and instant, actionable alerts.
How it Works
Wiliot IoT Pixels were applied to cases of strawberries, tracking their temperature and whereabouts from the distribution center, through transit, to multiple stores, providing high-resolution insights into the state of their goods.
The Outcome
The Wiliot Intelligence Platform promptly detected temperature and process compliance issues, allowing the retailer to tackle underlying problems as they arise, minimizing wasted inventory and ensuring fresher produce with more predictable availability.
The Benefits
Insights delivered by the Wiliot Intelligence Platform guaranteed that the retailer’s produce met the highest standards of freshness and quality, directly enhancing customer trust and enabling systematic elimination of food spoilage and waste causes.
Gartner's 'Market Guide for Indoor Location Application Platforms' highlights Wiliot's innovative energy harvesting capabilities and its advantages over batteries are described : "Energy Harvesting technologies could address this problem. Several providers offer innovative low-cost tags and other devices that run on energy harvested from the environment..." "The ROI for such tags is much better than for battery-powered tags; Wiliot’s tags are already below $1 and the price is falling rapidly. Also describes Wiliot's flexibility regarding integration into others platforms: "Many application platform providers have become much more flexible in their hardware partner support, driving further integration between location and IoT- enabled sensors. These new sensors unlock new opportunities. For example, Wiliot’s low-cost and batteryless devices allow application platforms such as Sonar (Thinaer) to track assets at scale and at the same time transmit status information via integrated environmental sensors."
