Trigo Named ‘Top Supplier Retail’ at RETA Awards 2026

Earns Recognition for its Innovative Application of AI in Loss Prevention with German Supermarket chain Netto Marken-Discount

DUSSELDORF, Germany, Feb. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trigo, the leader in computer vision AI for retail, today announced it has been recognized as a ‘Top Supplier Retail’ at the 2026 Retail Technology Awards Europe (RETA). This marks the third time in five years that Trigo has received this prestigious accolade. The award recognizes Trigo’s role as the strategic technology partner for the German retailer Netto Marken-Discount, which took home the RETA 2026 in the “Artificial Intelligence” category.

Presented by the EHI Retail Institute, the award honors Netto’s implementation of Trigo’s AI-driven computer vision to add transparency to loss prevention and deliver a proactive, real-time strategy.

Proven Maturity and Real-World Value

The collaboration between Netto and Trigo has successfully demonstrated the system's maturity and its ability to integrate into daily operations. By leveraging existing store infrastructure, Netto transformed existing standard infrastructure into an intelligent, real-time loss-prevention system.

“We are honored to be recognized once again by the EHI Retail Institute,” said Daniel Gabay, Co-founder and CEO of Trigo. “Netto has been a phenomenal partner in pushing the boundaries of modern retail. This award demonstrates that our loss prevention Vision-AI is a proactive tool that provides instant operational value. Together with Netto, we set a new standard for how retailers protect their margins while simultaneously supporting their store teams.”

Seamless Integration and Real-Time Response

Trigo’s platform is designed to be frictionless for both the retailer and the shopper. The system remains unintrusive unless a discrepancy is detected, ensuring the shopping experience remains uninterrupted. Furthermore, the technology is built on a privacy-by-design architecture, using proprietary algorithms to process item movements and shopping interactions while maintaining anonymity in accordance with global standards.

The implementation delivers value across four key areas:

Proactive Prevention: Real-time assistance notifications, backed by clear, system-generated reference points, enable immediate, professional addressing of discrepancies.
Preserved Shopping Experience: The system is designed to be non-intrusive; customers receive only a discreet notification if an item needs to be rescanned.
Data-driven Insights: Beyond security, the platform provides a data foundation to optimize workflows, resource allocation, and future store concepts.

Driving Innovation in Everyday Store Operations

“AI solutions open up new opportunities for us – especially where they provide our store teams with tangible relief. With innovative digital applications, we create greater transparency, efficiency, and safety in the daily working routines within our stores. The RETA award confirms that we are taking a consistent and forward-looking approach to digitalization and developing solutions that support our customers as well as our employees alike,” says Christina Stylianou, Head of Corporate Communications at Netto. The RETA 2026 win reinforces Trigo’s position as a trusted Vision-AI partner for global retailers looking to digitize their physical stores effectively and responsibly.
