Nature's Emporium Partners with Retailgrid to Bring AI-Powered Pricing Intelligence to Its Ontario Stores
Family-owned organic grocer launches a data-driven pricing program with Retailgrid, starting with the Supplements category
TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA, September 8, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Nature's Emporium, the family-owned Ontario organic and natural products grocer, today announced a new partnership with Retailgrid, an AI-powered spreadsheet for retail. The partnership brings structured, explainable pricing decisions to Nature's Emporium's six Ontario stores, beginning with the Supplements category.Goals of the partnership
The program is designed to give Nature's Emporium's merchandising team a live, day-to-day view of the market and a repeatable process for acting on it. Together, Nature's Emporium and Retailgrid are working toward:
• A daily, structured view of how Nature's Emporium's prices compare across the natural and organic grocery market.
• Demand-driven pricing decisions, built on real elasticity and sales data rather than gut feel, rolling out category by category, starting with Supplements.
• A stronger price image on the items shoppers notice and compare most, without eroding the margin the business depends on.
• A scalable, explainable pricing process that grows with Nature's Emporium as it expands beyond its current six stores.
Built on a proven track record
Ahead of the partnership, Retailgrid's Price Radar platform monitored pricing across 2,500 retailers in the organic food category and modeled 20 million transactions across categories to analyze competitive positioning and identify opportunities to improve customer price perception and profitability. The same engine now powers Nature's Emporium's pricing program.
Since the program launched in late July, Retailgrid has completed daily data integration with Nature's Emporium's systems, started daily demand modeling and price elasticity analysis across the full assortment, and begun live price monitoring of four major natural-products retailers and Amazon.ca.
What the partners are saying
"At Nature's Emporium, we've built our business on knowing our customers and standing behind our values since 1993. Retailgrid gives our merchandising team the same rigor the big chains have, without losing the judgment that makes us who we are."
Steve Hollingsworth, CEO, Nature's Emporium
"Nature's Emporium's team has been an ideal partner: fast, hands-on, and clear about what matters to their shoppers. We're building a pricing process here that is explainable at every step, category by category, starting with Supplements."
Maxim Morozov, Founder & CEO, Retailgrid
