We’re proud to announce that our large-scale artificial intelligence project for direct store delivery (DSD), developed in partnership with Moov AI, has been selected as a finalist for the 2025 Innovation in Food Awards by the Conseil de la transformation alimentaire du Québec (CTAQ).
This recognition highlights the tangible impact of our solution on food distributors’ performance, combining our software expertise with the power of artificial intelligence.
Transforming food distribution with AI
In a sector where delivery accuracy and inventory management make all the difference, we set out to modernize planning and improve our clients’ operational performance. With the help of Moov AI, our solution leverages AI to analyze a wide range of factors, including sales history, returns, promotions, seasonality, consumption trends, and more.
This approach enables more reliable and efficient forecasting of the products to be delivered, while helping reduce waste — a key issue for both the food distribution industry and society.
An integrated and proven solution
Our project is built on two complementary modules, integrated into CIS Companion Route, already used by over 80 clients across North America:
Demand forecasting: Predict the precise needs of each point of sale and recommend the right quantities to deliver.
Assortment optimization: Automatically suggest the products best suited to the local characteristics of each store.
This integration ensures rapid adoption and immediate value for distributors.
Real-world results
By replacing intuitive decision-making based on individual experience with automated, objective recommendations, our solution enables smarter planning and fairer decisions.
A nomination we’re proud of
Being named a finalist for the CTAQ Innovation in Food Awards is a meaningful recognition for our team and partners. It confirms that artificial intelligence is a powerful lever for transforming operations, driving more efficient and responsible distribution.
The winners will be announced on November 20, 2025, during the CTAQ marketing event at the Palais des congrès de Montréal.
