Grocery Tech Soars at Upshop’s Altitude Show

Innovations Unveiled at the Upshop Altitude Show

Retail leaders gathered in Austin to spotlight game-changing tech at the annual Upshop Altitude Show, hosted by the SaaS company Upshop.

One Platform, Total Store Control

Upshop’s unified app streamlines ordering, forecasting, and inventory management for grocers. It integrates every store department into one smart platform.
The app predicts demand using AI, weather data, promotions, and seasonality, providing accurate forecasts that reduce waste and drive efficiency.

Upshop CEO Shamus Hines emphasized, “Optimizing one department limits performance. Total store control boosts sales and saves time fast.”

Real-Time Results in Fresh Management

Retailers using Upshop tools cut shrink, improved freshness, and empowered staff with data. The Fresh Market saw results through automation.
Store teams switched from handwritten lists to AI-powered schedules, making daily tasks clearer and boosting associate confidence immediately.

Festival Foods scaled its perimeter departments with Upshop’s tech. The system helped them meet fresh demand while reducing complexity.

Shaping the Tech-Driven Grocery Future

Experts forecast shoppers will spend one-third of budgets on fresh foods in 2025. That growth drives grocers to expand deli and prepared sections.
Upshop’s platform helps with recipe planning, production tracking, and order automation—key tools for grocers scaling operations.

VP Martin Grådal introduced upcoming AI upgrades. These tools allow seamless work across smartphones, tablets, and desktops in stores.

He also previewed a powerful forecasting system that can analyze black swan events and react faster than ever before.
