AI platform for grocery operations and fresh-food supply chain
Afresh operates a machine-learning platform purpose-built for grocery—forecasting, ordering, and production decisions across produce, meat, and center-store categories. The stack reflects a data-intensive, real-time operation: Python + PostgreSQL + Databricks + Snowflake for model training, paired with TypeScript + React frontends and Kubernetes infrastructure for deployment at scale. Active hiring is heavily engineering-focused (13 of 19 roles), tilted toward senior and staff levels, suggesting they're stabilizing a complex inference and data-integration layer while scaling a high-revenue ordering product.
Afresh builds AI forecasting and ordering software for grocery retailers, helping store managers and distribution centers make decisions about purchasing, inventory, and production. Founded in 2017, the company serves major chains across 40 US states, supporting over 12,500 store departments with real-time demand prediction and supply optimization. The platform spans the full grocery operation: fresh perimeter (produce, meat), center-store categories, store-level POS integration, and distribution-center planning. Revenue scales with order volume and waste reduction delivered; the technical roadmap prioritizes real-time inference performance, customer data integration, and observability as the product expands.
Afresh runs Python, PostgreSQL, Databricks, and Snowflake for data pipelines and ML training; TypeScript and React for web interfaces; Kubernetes and Azure for production infrastructure; dbt for transformation; and Datadog and Sentry for observability.
Afresh supports more than 12,500 departments across 40 states, partnering with retailers including Albertsons Companies, Stater Bros., Meijer, and Wakefern.
Afresh's technology stack, projects, and hiring signals are inferred from public hiring and company data — career pages, public listings, and company web presence — then clustered and de-duplicated. Figures are estimates that refresh over time. Read our full methodology →
