In some embodiments, a system for remotely purchasing perishable products includes a plurality of image capture devices configured to capture images of perishable products, a product image database, a product attribute database, and a control circuit configured to execute computer program modules. An image processing module receives and processes images from the image capture devices to form a composite image. A product identification module identifies and segments the products in the composite image. A product selection module causes an application executed on a remote electronic device operated by a customer to display the composite image and receives from the application a selection of a product to purchase, at least one product attribute, and a quantity of individual product units to purchase. The product selection module identifies the individual product units having the selected product attribute(s) and outputs signaling to cause retrieval of the individual product units.
