Balancing Margins,
Morale, and Food Safety
How do you stay fresh when workforce planning is stuck in the past?
Grocery distribution has
never been more complex
With one-third of fresh produce wasted each year – often because the right people aren’t in the right place at the right time – and nearly half of cold chain operators struggling to maintain staffing levels, it’s clear that traditional workforce planning no longer works.
Predyktable puts you ahead – of change,
of waste, and of the competition
Our self-serve, AI-powered platform is built for perishable logistics. It brings precision to planning, adapts to shelf-life sensitivity, and flexes with fast-changing consumer behaviour. We help grocery teams stay ahead, stay compliant, and put freshness first.
How Predyktable Helps
Demand-Driven Labour Planning
Our self-serve platform combines demand forecasting with dynamic workforce allocation—helping grocers align staffing to real-time volumes, seasonal peaks, and cold chain-specific needs.
- Reduce overtime, agency spend, and staff stress—while protecting your margins.
- Support cross-training so teams can flex across picking, packing, and stock
- Match experienced staff to high-risk zones like chill and frozen
- Minimise training time for temps and seasonal hires
Skills-Based Scheduling and Growth
Assign workers to the right roles based on verified skills, training, and compliance status. That’s critical in chilled environments and when handling high-risk foods.
- Predyktable also helps you spot skills gaps and support internal growth.
- Help teams grow with training insights
- Ensure staff with proper training handle sensitive stock
- Provide the right onboarding for temps and seasonal workers
Scenario Modelling for Resilience
Simulate the impact of staffing gaps, demand surges, or new regulations—before they happen.
- This lets you plan ahead, protect service levels, and make smarter choices on hiring and training.
- Build more agile, adaptable operations
- Plan for disruption without compromising safety
- Understand the staffing impact of changing regulations or visa rules
