GreenCore Solutions Corp. (GSC) has released A2A-Grocery.ai, a hub it describes as the place where AI agents source and shop for grocery retail. According to the company, the platform is live across 20 markets in Europe, the Americas and Asia-Pacific.

Key points
  • GreenCore Solutions Corp. released A2A-Grocery.ai, which it says is live across 20 markets in Europe, the Americas and Asia-Pacific.
  • The company cites 1,973,447 points of sale, 8,619 retail banners and 5 billion agentic datapoints.
  • A2A-Retailmedia.ai is a companion hub for agentic retail media in grocery.
  • The platform runs on MCP and A2A with a human in the loop, on Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Enterprise.
  • Market figures in the release are the company's claims and cite third parties such as Gartner, Forrester, WARC and eMarketer.

What GSC is offering

GreenCore Solutions Corp., based in Vancouver, says A2A-Grocery.ai puts food makers in front of the AI agents that now handle grocery buying. The company gives the scale of its network as 1,973,447 points of sale, 8,619 retail banners, 20 markets and 5 billion agentic datapoints, which it calls the GSC Agentic Stack for retail grocery.

GSC also says its AI Agents have handled 100M+ agentic handshakes year to date. The company states that the platform runs on its Agentic Core, delivered on Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent-to-Agent (A2A), with a human in the loop.

Matthew Keddy, CEO of GreenCore Solutions Corp., said in the release: "A new sector opened this year: agentic grocery retail." He described GSC as "the agentic commerce hub for grocery retail," connecting brands and private label makers to shelves, marketplaces and ad media at scale.

The market claims behind the launch

The release rests on a set of figures about AI adoption. GSC states that grocery retailers in the US, Canada, EU and UK buy about $2 trillion of goods a year, and that this buying is now done with agents. It cites Gartner as predicting that AI agents will outnumber human sellers ten to one by 2028.

The company also points to web traffic data. It says Cloudflare's CEO announced in June 2026 that AI agents had passed humans on the web for the first time, at 57% of traffic, and that by October the split was 64% agents to 36% human, according to Cloudflare Radar. On the buyer side, it cites Forrester (2026) for the finding that 94% of business buyers used AI in their most recent purchase, Gallup (Q2 2026) for more than half of US employees using AI in their job, and the Ramp AI Index (Aug 2026) for 56% of US businesses paying for it.

These figures are presented by GSC in its own announcement, and the claim that $2 trillion of grocery buying has moved to AI-led procurement is the company's framing.

Retail media and the wider hub family

Alongside the grocery hub, GSC promotes A2A-Retailmedia.ai as an agentic retail-media hub for grocery. The company argues that retail media is the fastest-growing line in grocery retail: it says stores grow 2 to 4% a year, while the media business grows 10 to 40%.

It cites WARC for a global retail media market of $200 billion in 2026, rising to $223 billion in 2027, and eMarketer for a US market of $71 billion, up 18% in a year. GSC says one marketplace takes nearly four of every five of those US dollars, and positions the 8,619 grocery banners on its platform as the other side of that market.

A2A-Grocery.ai leads four hubs and a gateway on the GSC Agentic Core. The others are A2A-Cosmetics.ai, for cosmetics in 18 markets; A2A-Peptides.ai, a gated business-to-business hub for licensed peptide trading partners in 35 countries; and A2A-Diapers.ai, a secure trade agent gateway for hygiene.

What it means for grocery suppliers and retailers

For food makers and retailers, the release signals a push to make product and media inventory readable by automated buying agents rather than only by human buyers. GSC says it operates on Microsoft Azure in 18 regions and on Google Cloud Enterprise, serves 20 grocery markets, and is a Microsoft AI Cloud Partner.

The announcement does not provide pricing, customer names or independent performance results, so the scale and impact of the platform rest on the company's own figures. More information is available at gsc-em.com, according to the release.
