Meijer's app to limit food waste set to expand
Looking to bolster its sustainability efforts, Meijer will now make its Flashfood app available in all of its stores, allowing customers to get discounts for buying meat, produce, seafood, deli and bakery items nearing their sell-by dates. Store officials said a pilot program with the app tested at four stores in the Detroit area resulted in a decrease in food waste, which "diverted thousands of pounds of food from landfills," according to Don Sanderson, group vice president of fresh for Meijer.
