When retailers simplify wine discovery, shoppers gain confidence, baskets grow and loyalty strengthens.

In today's competitive grocery landscape, retailers are seeking innovative ways to enhance the shopping experience and boost sales. PairAnything offers AI-powered solutions that simplify food and beverage discovery, turning casual shoppers into loyal customers.

Transforming the Wine Aisle

Wine is a unique category in grocery retail; when included in a basket, it can increase total spend by 65%. However, the wine aisle often overwhelms shoppers with choices. PairAnything addresses this by providing intuitive, context-aware recommendations that help customers select the perfect wine for any occasion.

“When wine is present in a grocery basket, the basket is 65% larger. We want wine in the basket not just for the value of it and selling the wine, but also how it’s helping the total spend.” ~ Arlin Zajmi, director of national buying, adult beverages, at Aldi USA.
