Measure fruit quality.
Predict end use.
Reduce waste.

The intelligent platform connecting fruit quality decisions across the supply chain.

 

The Problem

Fruit quality assessments are subjective and inefficient

Green apple

Imprecise Methods

Guesswork and invasive tests

Apple inspection

High Waste

Misrouted and discarded fruits

Apple lost

Lost Value

Margin loss and efficiency

  • 20% annual apple wastage driven by demand and market access gaps
  • 50% struggle to find suitable markets for table apples
  • 60% prefer a non-invasive handheld device for chemical and quality assessment
  • 65% willing to invest $1,500 in such a solution
  • 50% open to pilots or research programs

Our Solution

A different approach

By evaluating multiple chemical and non-chemical attributes simultaneously and non-invasively, the Panache Intelligence software platform predicts with >75% accuracy the optimum end use of the apple and pricing strategies

What this enables

Panache enables earlier, better-informed decisions that preserve value, reduce waste, and align incentives across the supply chain.

Food waste is rarely caused by poor production. It is caused by decisions made too late or with incomplete information.

Across the supply chain

Panache supports decision-makers wherever quality, timing, and routing decisions occur.

That includes orchard operators, packing houses, processors, distributors, and retailers. Rather than optimizing for a single workflow or handoff, Panache provides a shared intelligence layer that can be applied across the supply chain. As deployment evolves, the platform adapts to different environments while delivering consistent insight at each decision point.

Panache enables each participant to make better decisions independently while staying aligned across the system.

 

Built in the real world

Panache was created with a simple idea: that wellness begins at the intersection of nature, science, and culture. Rooted in Ayurvedic tradition and inspired by French cidre craftsmanship, Panache began by crafting clean-label functional beverages using Minnesota-grown apples and botanicals like ginger, turmeric, sour cherry, and aronia.

But behind the beverages was a bigger vision: to transform the way orchards grow, measure, and optimize their fruit. After years of research and experimentation, Panache developed a proprietary Apple Optimization technology, an intelligent platform that uses embedded sensors, data modeling, and predictive analytics to help growers improve quality, reduce waste, and steward their land more sustainably.

Today, Panache operates at the convergence of two worlds: functional wellness and agricultural intelligence.

The core value, however, is the intelligence platform which in turn will improve and expand to produce customized beverages - the next frontier for the CPG - consumer packaged goods - sector.

 

Why now

Labor constraints, climate variability, and margin pressure are increasing the cost of poor decisions. Panache enables clarity where it has historically been missing, helping the supply chain reduce waste, protect value, and align outcomes.
