Smartway

Le gaspillage alimentaire est un défi majeur de notre société, et nous sommes fiers de le relever aux côtés de Laurence Garnier, Secrétaire d'État à la Consommation. La semaine dernière, notre cofondateur Christophe Menez a eu l'honneur de présenter à Mme Garnier l'impact tangible de nos solutions chez Smartway lors d'une visite inspirante à l'Intermarché de Viry-Châtillon, dirigé par Stéphane Dugousset. Ensemble, nous avons exploré comment notre Food Waste Management System et notre nouveau Fresh Operating System transforment le quotidien des enseignes et des consommateurs. 🚀 Depuis 2012, nous avons aidé nos partenaires à sauver plus de 350 millions de produits, équivalant à 360 000 tonnes de CO₂ ou encore à 280 millions d'euros de pouvoir d’achat redistribués aux consommateurs. Ces chiffres reflètent non seulement un impact environnemental significatif, mais aussi un soutien essentiel au pouvoir d'achat des familles. Voir Laurence Garnier s'engager avec passion sur ce sujet nous donne une immense satisfaction et renforce notre détermination. Son soutien témoignait aussi de la priorité que porte le nouveau Gouvernement à la lutte contre le gaspillage alimentaire. Un grand merci à Mme Garnier pour son écoute attentive et sa vision stratégique. Ensemble, avec les enseignes engagées et des consommateurs conscients, créons une société sans gaspillage 🙌 Laurence Garnier Léa LE GALIARD Marie-Alix Tournade Alexandre JEAN  Thierry Cotillard Nicolas Raynal Olivier TOUZE Céline Ratanavanh   DGCCRF - Ministère de l'Économie

🌿 LabelVie : the perfect retail actor to make shine our SmartHappy 🌿 LabelVie is a major Moroccan retailer, which believe that businesses have a responsibility to have a positive impact on both the environment and the communities they serve. We couldn’t agree more with it! So this week, we put the spotlight on this unavoidable actor on the Moroccan market, leading player of sustainable initiatives in the retail sector. Here are some of the key initiatives its teams can be proud of: 🌱 Eco-friendly operations: They continuously optimize their energy consumption by adopting renewable energy sources and implementing energy-efficient practices across all our stores. 🌍 Local sourcing & support: They choose partnerships with local farmers and producers to ensure fresh, high-quality products while promoting sustainable agricultural practices. 💧 Water: They have implemented cutting-edge water management systems to reduce water waste across the supply chain and operations. ♻️ Plastic reduction: LabelVie is committed to minimizing waste, with significant efforts in recycling and reducing plastic use. And let’s not forget the company's overall commitment to various “causes” as its teams took part in “Octobre Rose” events to support the fight against breast cancer. At LabelVie, sustainability isn't just a buzzword: it’s an ongoing journey. Let’s be enthusiastic about what the future holds thanks to committed retailers. And what if we could take steps forward regarding food waste? Together, we can make a lasting, positive impact on the planet! 🌎💚 #SmartHappy #LabelVie #CircularEconomy #SustainableFuture

A look back at the Smartway seminar in pictures! 📸 At the beginning of October, all our teams got reunited at an amazing place for our annual seminar! This year, the organization team (Paul-Adrien MENEZ, Elsa A., Charline B., Samuel Abraham) had set the standards higher than ever as during 3 days, the teams enjoyed the ultimate comfort of Center Parcs Le Bois aux Daims ✨ An amazing stay with a rich program: keynotes and workshops (we never stop changing the world! 💪) and fun moments together (dinners, bowling, escape game and swimming sessions at the amazing facilities of the place). A great stay, full of laughter, discussions and enjoyable moments. Also a time to welcome the new "Smartworkers" who make the team grow to achieve our goals and a good opportunity to see the teammates usually in full remote or abroad. When the full Smartway family is reunited, what a pleasure! (and what an energy too! 🤩) It is a motivation boost to accompany more and more retailers worldwide to fight their food waste! Smartway teams, proud to work for the planet! 🙌

As Smartway is taking its first steps in Africa, focus on a diverse continent regarding food Monoprix Tunisie recently trusted Smartway to accelerate its fight against food waste 🙏 This first step in Africa is for our teams one of the most exciting challenges we ever had to experiment. Because Africa is a continent of paradox regarding food. 282 million people in Africa suffer from undernourishment. And at the same time, countries are developing fast and starting to consume as europeans. A diverse territory, where retailers have a major role to play 🙌 Take 5 minutes to read our focus on this land of disparities: https://lnkd.in/eVt5FUm5 You want to discuss about it?

Tesco’s commitment to a sustainable future: reducing food waste 🌱 Tesco is our SmartHappy of the week! Because, for this famous retail player, addressing food waste is not only a business imperative but also an essential step in building a sustainable future. They are dedicated to cutting food waste by 50% by 2030, in line with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 12.3. Here’s how Tesco is making impact:  ♻️ Removing best-before dates on over 100 fresh products, helping customers reduce waste at home and giving them more flexibility. 🍽️ Redistributing surplus food: In 2023 alone, they donated the equivalent of over 120 million meals to charities and food banks through their partnerships with FareShare UK and Olio • Share More, Waste Less. 📊 Transparency in reporting: Tesco was the first UK retailer to publicly disclose food waste data across its operations and continues to lead the way in measuring and reducing waste in the supply chain. 🌾 Supplier partnerships: They work closely with their suppliers to reduce waste at the farm level, ensuring that perfectly edible food reaches consumers, not landfills. 👉 Tesco is the perfect example of how a major retail player is taking meaningful steps with its ecosystem (customers, suppliers and partners) to create a #ZeroWasteFuture. Let’s get inspired by this commitment to continue the fight against food waste! Tesco, let's speak together about it? #Sustainability #FoodWaste #CircularEconomy #GreenBusiness #Tesco #ZeroWaste #CorporateResponsibility

Ce 1️⃣ 6️⃣ octobre, c’est la journée nationale de lutte contre le gaspillage alimentaire ! Une date ô combien importante pour nos équipes ! 👊 Les chiffres du gaspillage alimentaire en France sont encore majeurs :  👉 10 tonnes de nourriture gaspillées chaque année 👉 14% de gaspillage dans le retail 👉 Un coût de 16 millions d'euros par an pour le pays Et ce constat toujours d’actualité : les magasins alimentaires jettent autant que ce qu'ils gagnent ! Chez Smartway, nous luttons contre le gaspillage alimentaire depuis 2012, date à laquelle nous avons commencé à installer les zones « zéro-gâchis» en magasins.  Et l’histoire a commencé en France, plus particulièrement à Brest où nos cofondateurs (Christophe Menez Paul-Adrien MENEZ) se sont attaqués à ce fléau économique, social et environnemental et sont devenus partenaires de grandes enseignes hexagonales. Le gaspillage n'a pas de frontières, nous avons donc décidé d'étendre notre mission et notre ambition à l'échelle mondiale, mais nous continuons sans relâche la lutte contre le gaspillage alimentaire en métropole et dans les Outre-mer, autour de Gatien Le Mestre et son équipe : Anne-Sophie Gratia, Fabien PRIOL et Fabien ALLOUARD ! 🚀 Merci à tous nos clients pour leur confiance et luttons contre le gaspillage alimentaire aujourd'hui… et tous les jours ! 🙏
