Online grocer Farmstead has expanded its Refill & Save program to all shoppers. The savings program, which provides significant discounts on staples, including milk, eggs, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables and bread, had previously only been available to weekly subscription customers. Now, the program is available to all same-day customers, and the discount will be applied to products that have been purchased at least once in the last two visits.
“Our Refill & Save program has been extremely popular with customers as many households order the same staples each time they shop,” said Pradeep Elankumaran, founder and CEO of San Francisco-based Farmstead. “Farmstead’s focus on these staple products and our use of AI models to predict demand allows us to reduce costs for our customers on frequently ordered household groceries. As we fulfill our mission to make high-quality locally sourced food available to all and reduce food waste, Refill & Save is an integral part of our offering.”
Farmstead uses artificial intelligence-powered predictive models to significantly improve efficiency and reduce costs and pass those savings along to its customers while helping local growers increase sales. It says its technologies can accurately predict what people will buy, stock its micro-warehouses accordingly, and deliver within an hour.
