From surplus inventory to measurable tax recovery — automatically

FoodFlow connects to your operational systems, detects surplus early, executes donation workflows, and produces audit-ready tax documentation across every store.

No POS replacement required. Pilot with existing data.

HOW IT WORKS

Detect. Donate. Document.

From surplus signal to audit-ready tax recovery.

01 Detect

Identify expiring and tax-eligible surplus automatically across all locations.

02 Donate

Coordinate donation execution and generate IRS-compliant fair market valuation.

03 Document

Produce audit-ready reporting tied to tax recovery and P&L impact.

How FoodFlow Operates

01

Data Ingestion

Real-time operational data unified across stores

  • Syncs POS, ERP, and inventory data automatically
  • Tracks inventory levels and expiration in real time
  • Normalizes data across systems via secure API
  • Establishes a financial-grade data layer for surplus valuation
02

Surplus Detection

Identifies tax-recoverable surplus before expiration

  • Predicts surplus using expiration, velocity, and sell-through
  • Surfaces tax-eligible donation candidates automatically
  • Eliminates manual store-by-store reviews
  • Routes alerts for timely action
03

Orchestration

Automated donation execution and tax documentation

  • Coordinates pickups with donation partners
  • Generates IRS-compliant fair market valuation
  • Tracks donations end-to-end across locations
  • Reduces manual coordination by up to 94%
04

Reporting & Intelligence

Audit-ready reporting for finance and operations

  • Connects donations directly to P&L impact
  • Calculates tax recovery by store and region
  • Produces consistent financial and ESG reports
  • Delivers documentation for audits and compliance
CONTINUOUS OPERATIONAL IMPROVEMENT

Continuous surplus capture and tax optimization

Forward Flow

From inventory signal to executed action

Inventory data updates

POS, ERP, and inventory systems sync continuously across all locations, ensuring real-time accuracy without manual data entry.

Risk is detected early

Multi-factor models flag at-risk inventory before expiration, eliminating store-by-store checks and late interventions.

Donations execute automatically

Partner coordination, compliance documentation, and tax tracking run automatically — saving hours each week and ensuring surplus is captured.

Outcome: Faster surplus capture. Higher tax recovery. Less manual oversight.

Feedback Loop

Every cycle makes the system smarter

Operational results are measured

Pickup success rates, donation acceptance, and timing performance are captured automatically.

Patterns drive system adjustments

Thresholds, routing rules, and partner schedules adjust based on real-world performance — not assumptions.

Outcomes improve over time

Each cycle increases accuracy, raises donation capture rates, and reduces operational friction.

Outcome: Increased donation capture rates and improved financial return over time.
