Hello, First full quarter of fresh live. Numbers against the baseline we agreed in December. Produce and dairy, 25 pilot stores, January to March: Fresh waste 4.1% -> 3.4% of fresh net sales Absolute reduction approximately 118 tonnes over the quarter Estimated CO2e avoided approximately 296 tonnes Availability +1.9 points Order automation 88% on the categories in scope The CO2e figure uses the conversion factors in your own sustainability report rather than ours, so it should reconcile with what you publish. Chilled ready meals is not in these numbers, it went live too late in the quarter. Two caveats. The baseline quarter had an unusually warm February which flatters produce. And the 118 tonnes is scaled from 25 stores, so please do not multiply it up to the full estate in any external communication without talking to us first. One note on how it is arrived at. The tonnage is derived from the article movement totals in the nightly extract, not counted from till data. That is the normal basis and it has been stable all quarter, but it is a derivation rather than a count and I would rather say so than have it come up later.

This is the first number in two years that I can take to the board without qualifying it to death. Robert - 3.4 percent. Target is 2.8. We are two thirds of the way there on the pilot cohort.

This email originated from outside of RELEX. Be careful of attachments and links from unknown senders. Report suspicious emails using the report button. Nadia - the produce number looks right to me. Dairy looks too good. Can you check whether the dairy baseline includes the yoghurt range, because we moved that between categories in November and I think it may be counted in one period and not the other. Separately. You say the tonnage comes off the extract totals. Has anyone put those next to the till numbers for the same three months? I am not saying they are wrong. I am saying I do not think anyone has looked, and we are about to put this in front of the board.

Memory citing this document

pilot-25-of-340 — The cohort is 25 of Acme’s 340 stores and is not a random sample — Ana Duarte has refused to scale pilot results to the estate for that reason, every time the numbers were reported.
res-q1-2026 — First full fresh quarter (January–March 2026, produce and dairy, 25 pilot stores): fresh waste 4.1% → 3.4% of fresh net sales, ~118 tonnes avoided, ~296 tonnes CO2e on Acme’s own factors, availability +1.9 points, order automation 88% in scope. Chilled ready meals is not in these numbers (went live too late in the quarter).
res-q1-caveats — Nadia Haddad attached two caveats to the Q1 2026 numbers: the baseline quarter had an unusually warm February which flatters produce, and the tonnage is derived from nightly-extract movement totals rather than counted from till data — “a derivation rather than a count”.
res-dairy-baseline-question — Sofia Almeida challenged the Q1 dairy figure as looking too good and asked whether the dairy baseline includes the yoghurt range, which was moved between categories in November and may be counted in one period and not the other. The archive contains no answer.
