Wasteless is a real-time tracking solution for grocery stores, which offers customers variable pricing based on a product’s expiration date. This new tech solution promises to recapture one billion dollars worth of lost grocery sales every week.

This, the people behind Wasteless say, will help supermarkets sell more and waste less.
