Oracle Retail offers a complete end-to-end solution for managing fresh products with Merchandising and the Platform as the centerpieces, supporting master data management of ingredients and finished products, ensuring ethical sourcing and production, inventory management, and accurate demand forecasts for all products.

The new fresh management capabilities available for Oracle Retail Merchandising Foundation Cloud Service enable grocers to more efficiently allocate and account for inventory to create compelling fresh food offerings with complete visibility into inventory, waste, production costs, and finished goods demand.
