Client

A private investor from Germany turned to us to realize his idea of coastal food delivery. The client provided his requirements and business features which should be taken into account during project development

Business challenges

  • Severely limited budget for the project
  • Limited time for project development because of the season coming
  • Unwillingness of the target audience to install additional applications on a smartphone

Our solutions

  • Web application for customers (PWA)
  • Delivery management system for drivers (PWA)
  • Shopify warehouse accounting integration
  • Shopify payment system integration

Project implementation

After analyzing customer requirements, we proposed a technical solution leveraging Progressive Web Applications (PWAs) and integration with the Shopify platform. We developed a comprehensive system for order reception and processing, payment acceptance, accounting, and goods delivery. The customer-facing app enabled easy order placement, while the driver app allowed for order management and customer location tracking using geo-coordinates.

The PWA approach provided clients with access to the delivery service without the need to install an app, simply by scanning QR codes placed in the coastal area. We integrated the solution with Shopify to incorporate warehouse accounting and a payment system, helping to reduce overall project development costs. By rapidly testing the hypothesis, we were able to develop a minimum viable product (MVP) and prepare everything for a successful product launch in time for the season.
