The entire retail sector has been transformed by mobile apps over the past couple of years. Especially in the last 3 years, the grocery business & companies have seen enormous growth. Not only they offer a higher degree of growth but opens up a whole new avenue to grow in for the companies.
Need groceries? No need to visit the market, but instead pick up the phone, fire up the app and order the groceries you want. And in no time, they will be delivered at your place!
An app to provide ease and comfort to the users in shopping by providing an online platform, which let them save their time and manage efficiently in their busy lifestyle.
Do you find it troublesome to leave the comfort of your house, go outside just to fetch milk because there’s nothing else to have with your morning cereals? It turned out to be too busy lifestyle to take time out for such tasks.
People need groceries but are not ‘happily’ willing to go out and get them. Now imagine you get a chance to get fresh fruits, plants, milk and all other important household products delivered at your door? Wouldn’t it be like a blessing. Well, that blessing was Martin’s product.
Objective
To create a better user experience by configuring various problems related to time, reach and availability of services 24/7 along with maintaining a secure platform.
Target Audience
The app can be used by almost everyone, but its majority used by the working class, college students and work from home individuals.
The Challenge
The major problems that we focused on during the development of the project were the project environment, the technological limitation and time constraints. Our client, Martin, wished us to build a grocery delivery app that people would love to use because of features like suggested purchases – where products based on their recently searched or previously purchased items would show up in their feed as grocery purchase is a recurring thing. There was little complexity for our developer, but it is nearly completed within a time frame with the aid of a senior developer.
We wanted to build an app for the users which offers them a smooth, bugfree experience which would encourage them to come back from the application to make orders, rather than going out to the market.
Thus, we listened to our Client, Martin, carefully and collected his unplanned application’s concept and have begun to examine the design of the desired grocery ordering application for their business model and target market. Our team was ready to take on the project and proposed the following market-based solutions:
Strategy & Planning
This is the stage where we did the basic planning and strategizing of the app. All the way from concept proofing to setting up the list of features in the app was done here. He app was done here.
UI & UX Design
This is the stage where the basic design of the application got defined. This phase was important because a polished, well structured, seamless design not only helps the users navigate through the app easily but makes them come back to the app. Thus, we had to make sure we offer the customers the best design possible.
Development
Development is the stage where our engineers make all the magic happen. From the basic development planning to the final testing of the application was done here. The development process was divided into 3 major segments — the front end, APIs and the back end development of the app.
Launch
Now lastly, after a bunch of testing and iterations, the app got finally launched on the both iOS and Android stores.

Have a look at the technology stack we used to create a responsive and engaging home service app solution!
Many entrepreneurs hesitate a lot when getting their app developed. But Martin was unlike any of them. He was willing to experiment, open to suggestion and was ready to put in whatever it takes to make his app a success. And in just a matter of 7 months post launch, he succeeded as he touched his 1,00,000 active users mark.
