Afresh is a San Francisco AI company building software for the grocery industry, with a focus on the notoriously hard problem of fresh food. Unlike traditional demand-forecasting tools, Afresh developed AI designed for short shelf life, unpredictable demand, and imperfect store data. Its platform spans store ordering, production planning, inventory management, and distribution-center buying across produce, meat, bakery, deli, and increasingly center-store and frozen categories. Retailers using Afresh report meaningful sales lifts, double-digit shrink reductions, and large drops in stockouts. The platform now supports more than 12,500 departments with partners including Albertsons, Stater Bros., Meijer, and Wakefern. In late 2025 Afresh raised $34 million co-led by Just Climate and High Sage Ventures amid 70% year-over-year revenue growth.
