🌍 Good for your bottom line. Good for the planet.

Only 56% of convenience stores recycle food waste Waste Mission, and poor stocking decisions are a big reason why. Fresh produce ordered that doesn't sell. Shelves overstocked with the wrong lines. Money, and food, going straight in the bin.
EcoWise AI fixes this.

Using machine learning and AI, we deliver weekly, action-oriented recommendations straight to you,
telling you exactly what to stock, what to cut, and what's driving sales. Seamlessly. In plain English.

The result?
📈 5–15% average sales uplift through data-led category decisions
♻️ Less waste, better sustainability, lower costs
💷 Affordable monthly subscription — no big team required
Smarter stocking isn't just better for your store. It's better for your community.

🌿 Meet the team behind EcoWise AI.
We're building an AI-powered tool that tells independent convenience and SME retailers exactly what to stock, what to promote, and what to drop, as well as your long term strategy, based on your own sales data, delivered in plain English every week.

Built in collaboration with the Applied AI & Data Science team at the University of Warwick, so you know there's serious academic rigour behind every recommendation.

We're currently looking for our first pioneer stores to join a free pilot programme.
