Impact: HighDemand Forecasting and Perishable Inventory2026-07-01· RELEX Solutions
Frutura selects RELEX for near-real-time fresh-produce forecasting
Frutura has selected RELEX Solutions to improve demand forecasting across approximately 1,000 short-life fresh-produce items handled through a central distribution centre. Forecasts can be recalculated several times per day using seasonality, weekday effects, shelf-life behaviour and distribution constraints.
The Dataleo angle
The important shift is not merely from statistical to AI forecasting; it is from periodic forecast production to more continuous replenishment decisions. The affected workflow is perishable inventory and replenishment planning. Value depends on reliable shelf-life, product, inventory and lead-time data, plus thresholds defining when planners should act. The failure mode is forecast volatility that creates more exceptions than operations can absorb.
