Vegas, Baby! NGA Show 2025 Recap

The Empower Fresh team recently had a fantastic trip to Las Vegas for the NGA Show. The insights and connections made will be fueling our mission to empower independent grocers all year long.

The NGA Show was a fantastic opportunity to connect with passionate grocers, industry leaders, and technology providers who are shaping the future of independent food retail. We had a blast at our booth, engaging in lively conversations with both familiar faces and new connections. It was incredibly rewarding to catch up with existing customers, hear their success stories, and learn how Empower Fresh is making a real difference in their produce departments.

One of the key themes that emerged from the show was the growing importance of technology and AI in empowering independent grocers. Breakout sessions and discussions emphasized how these tools can help retailers:

• Optimize operations: Streamline tasks, reduce shrink, and improve efficiency.
• Enhance the customer experience: Personalize offerings, create targeted promotions, and build loyalty.
• Gain a competitive edge: Level the playing field with data-driven insights and innovative solutions.

These themes resonated deeply with us at Empower Fresh, as our mission is to provide independent grocers with the AI-powered ordering and forecasting tools they need to thrive in today's competitive landscape. We're committed to continuous innovation and developing solutions that address the evolving needs of our customers.

The NGA Show was a fantastic reminder of the passion, resilience, and entrepreneurial spirit that drives the independent grocery industry. We're proud to be a part of this community and excited to continue partnering with grocers to build a brighter future for fresh food.
