Predicting is wasting less
LIOF, the regional development company for Limburg, is pleased to announce its recent investment in COMPUTD, a pioneering AI consulting and technology company. This strategic partnership aims to accelerate the development of COMPUTD's AI product designed to improve sales forecasting for bakeries, making a significant contribution to reducing food waste.
In the Netherlands, an incredible 700,000 loaves of bread are thrown away every day.* These alarming figures indicate the urgent need for innovative solutions in the food sector. COMPUTD's innovative solution uses advanced AI to analyse historical sales figures and provide bakeries with accurate forecasts. This allows bakeries to optimise their production planning, reduce surpluses and significantly reduce food waste, in line with global sustainability goals.
‘By investing in COMPUTD, we are not only funding a great company, but also promoting a sustainable future,’ said Lenn Houbiers, investment manager at LIOF. ‘We think AI technology can play an important role in solving societal problems such as food waste, and COMPUTD's AI tool is poised to transform the bakery sector.’
‘We are very happy to have the coverage and support of a strong financial partner with local and regional roots. This can help us develop what, potentially, could become a key AI tool for the bakery sector,’ said Marcell Igneczi, CEO and managing partner of COMPUTD.
LIOF's investment will enable COMPUTD to expand its technological capabilities, scale its operations and increase its impact on the bakery sector. COMPUTD is ready to enter the next phase of product development with leading bakeries in Limburg.
