Rivercity Innovations

Rivercity Innovations is excited to announce the closing of our latest funding round of $2M, lead by StepChange Capital Advisors Inc.!

Great news! Another reason for grocery stores to bring on our innovation in cold chain temperature monitoring across their supply chain, using IoT to reduce food waste and create process efficiencies alongside safety for their product. We now help brands big and small across North America automate temperature checking, digitizing compliance data, and preventing food waste. Having the leaders in the industry agree on core matters will certainly lead to better opportunities for us with our solution. https://lnkd.in/gGBExn77

👇 Bringing food waste prevention and digitization of compliance data through cold chain monitoring to our clients across Canada, USA, and Spain. Now including Skip Express Lane and Healthy Planet! https://lnkd.in/gkG-WV-U

Our cold chain temperature monitoring clients at Rivercity Innovations are finding out that not only do we prevent food waste, we reduce their carbon footprint. Optimizing cooler temperature performance leads to less energy used AND prevention of food loss. This means less CO2 into the atmosphere and reduced power bills for our clients. Even 10% improvement on their current performance leads to the equivalent of planting 90 tree seedlings per store (source: EPA.gov and US Energy Information Administration).

Did you know that our cold chain monitoring for grocery stores directly impacts sustainability and carbon footprint? Everytime we prevent a temperature related failure and food loss, the result is less CO2, less waste, and improved profitability in store operations. We also catch freezers and coolers not running right, helping optimize temperature settings. This reduces energy usage. While it seems small, even a 10% improved efficiency across many stores results in a very large carbon footprint reduction. We go one step further though - our sensors use a recyclable battery that lasts ten years, and we analyze data across thousands of locations to predict cooler and compressor failures BEFORE they happen based on the patterns in your cooling cycles. Preventing a catastrophic loss results in not only huge savings for our clients on the product, but also prevents business disruption and extremely bad carbon footprint impacts. Give us a shout to chat about all things cold chain, and learn more about bringing your business our safety net of food loss prevention and carbon footprint reduction.

Our new cold chain temperature monitoring dashboard ROCKS in dark mode. Do you manage or service grocery and pharmacy stores? Call us to get your sensors and complete solution today or become an authorized dealer. Reduce product loss, catch compressor failures before they happen, digitize your compliance data, automate staff labour processes, set up alerts and automatic reporting, and sleep better at night! All while complying with new January 2026 FDA regulations for digital temp records in the supply chain. Proudly Made in Canada, by Rivercity Innovations. Also available en Francais, y Espanol.

Rivercity Innovations is excited to see our RKX GPS trackers enabled by Kinéis low earth orbiting (LEO) IoT satellites launch this June! We spent over two years building our sensor with the Kinéis technology, and can deliver global coverage using both LoRa and satellite simultaneously. This allows for very reliable yet inexpensive telemetry for GPS and temperature in populous locations, inside buildings, then continued seamlessly into remote zones like far northern Canada or across oceans where this is no reliable coverage. This is due to the polar orbit of the satellite constellation, not a conventional lateral orbit. Pricing for our device and data will be substantially less than current satellite solutions. No external power or antenna will be required, yet you will see up to 12 years battery life in our device with daily updates. Call us to inquire about preordering yours today, or touch base with Kinéis reps worldwide and ask for the Made in Canada Rivercity Innovations tracker. The cool part...we are now an IoT provider experienced in developing "Space Tech" technology. And a huge shout out to our CTO Riley Stevenson for developing this complex hardware solution with the team at Kinéis. Vive la France! 🇫🇷❤️🇨🇦🚀🛰️

Our cold chain temperature monitoring solution continues to outperform in the market. Not only do we automate a legacy process to reduce operating costs for our clients, we also can help sustainable climate iniatives through reduced energy usage on freezers and prevention of food loss - both of these when mismanaged can have significant impact on CO2 and carbon pollution. In this example, a freezer is running too cold. Adjusting this freezer bank to -18C from -29C would reduce the power bill for this unit by 50% or more, without impacting the product in the freezer.
