In-warehouse food waste of products with fixed shelf life is mainly created due to short remaining shelf life. As the potential underlying causes have been pointed high inventory and safety stock levels, and quite aggregated planning and coordination of promotions with stores. For promotions the stock levels are set high in order to prevent stock outs and because demand is unpredictable, thus increasing food waste. Food waste is also increased due to product cannibalization (Taylor et al., 2009). Ordered amounts are sometimes increased also due to low ordering frequency and big batch sizes, when the wholesaler orders more than is needed to fit the batch size. Increased uncertainty due to promotion planning or ordering frequency has been identified also by Mena et al. (2011). More frequent deliveries and information exchange could thus reduce food waste (Kaipia et al., 2013; van der Vorst et al., 1998).
