Mill Secures Whole Foods Commercial Waste Deal

Mill, a food-waste startup, struck a deal with Amazon and Whole Foods to deploy commercial-scale waste bins in Whole Foods stores beginning in 2027. The bins will grind and dehydrate produce waste, supply feed for egg producers, reduce landfill fees and collect AI-driven sensor data to analyze shrink. Mill says the deployment diversifies revenue and uses LLM-enabled models to speed commercial productization.
