Food waste continues to be a costly and avoidable issue across the food supply chain. Kigüi, an Argentine startup, is helping supermarkets, brands, and distributors tackle this challenge head-on with a smart, data-driven solution powered by artificial intelligence.
Technology that anticipates, controls, and prevents losses
Kigüi’s platform combines an in-store app with automated reporting tools that digitize expiration tracking. Using real-time data, the system identifies at-risk products before they become waste and recommends preventive actions. Its machine learning engine sends predictive alerts that help teams make faster, more effective decisions — without needing to change existing systems or install new hardware.

Measurable impact: less waste, more sales
Retailers using Kigüi’s technology have seen up to a 40% reduction in food waste, along with better product rotation, improved operational efficiency, and increased revenue. The solution is fully operational in under two weeks and integrates seamlessly with current workflows.
A scalable model for food industry players
Kigüi’s approach delivers end-to-end traceability, from sell-in to the shelf. It empowers both store-level staff and corporate teams with actionable insights to reduce losses and improve performance. Leading CPG brands and retailers are adopting Kigüi to operate with less waste and greater visibility.
Strategic investment to expand its impact
To accelerate its growth, Kigüi recently secured a USD 500,000 investment. This funding will support continued development of its AI platform and expansion across Latin America, helping more businesses prevent waste before it happens.
