Augmented Reality for Meat & Produce

October, 2025

We’ve brought AR-powered Image Recognition to the perimeter. GoSpotCheck’s new Augmented Reality (AR) scanning for Meat and Produce delivers full visibility into fresh departments—where execution has always been hardest to measure. Using your mobile device, teams can now create a real-time digital twin of meat cases and produce bins, automatically detecting assortment, compliance, and availability issues that impact sales and shrink.

This breakthrough expands GoSpotCheck’s full-store image recognition capabilities beyond packaged goods, giving grocers a single app for task management, image recognition, and action.

Why It Matters

The perimeter of the store drives nearly half of total grocery revenue—but has historically been a blind spot for execution tracking. Without real-time visibility, grocers lose margin through shrink, out-of-stocks, and poor presentation.

With AR scanning, teams can:

  • Capture a digital twin of displays and bins in seconds
    Detect missing, mispositioned, or non-compliant SKUs automatically
  • Identify overstock and presentation issues before they lead to spoilage
  • Flag out-of-stocks instantly to preserve customer loyalty
  • Measure compliance and assortment execution in high-velocity fresh categories

Key Benefits

  • Reduce Shrink, Boost Margin
    Detect overstock, poor rotation, and non-compliance early to prevent spoilage and improve margins. Even a 0.5% reduction in waste can lift net income by up to 17%.
  • Increase Availability & Sales
    Get real-time alerts for out-of-stock SKUs and instantly flag gaps in critical “center of plate” items like steak, chicken, and bananas.
  • Drive Execution Excellence
    Validate planogram and display execution automatically. AR capture ensures meat and produce sets meet compliance and presentation standards—without manual audits.
  • Full-Store Consistency
    For the first time, grocers can measure and manage execution across every department—from center store to perishables—using one mobile app.

How It Works

  1. AR Scanning
    Store teams use GoSpotCheck’s mobile app to scan fresh cases and displays with AR. The app automatically maps the display, identifying each product with precision.
  2. AI Product Detection
    Image recognition detects SKU-level details, even for items with minimal branding like fresh cuts of meat or loose produce.
  3. Real-Time Reporting
    Within seconds, teams see on-device compliance scores, overstock indicators, and freshness alerts—no upload delay or back-end processing required.
  4. Actionable Insights
    Issues are automatically converted into action-item lists. Managers and corporate teams can track compliance, shrink, and assortment trends across locations in real time.

What Grocers Achieve

  • +2–4% increase in sales from improved assortment and planogram accuracy
  • Lower shrink in fresh departments through proactive visibility
  • Improved labor efficiency, as AR scanning replaces manual audits
  • Consistent execution standards across all departments
  • Higher customer satisfaction driven by better availability and presentation
