Groceries delivered in
minutes. Not excuses.
We build end-to-end grocery delivery platforms — from the customer-facing app and dark store operations to delivery routing and real-time inventory — engineered for hyperlocal speed.
Grocery Platform Challenges
What Makes Grocery Delivery Hard.
Real-Time Inventory Accuracy
A product showing available at checkout but out-of-stock in the warehouse destroys customer trust. We sync inventory at the SKU level in real time.
Perishable Product Management
Fruits, vegetables, and dairy require expiry tracking, FIFO picking, and automatic removal from the catalog as stock ages.
Hyperlocal Routing Speed
10-minute delivery requires optimized routes that account for traffic, picker time, and driver location — recalculated after every order.
Substitution Logic
When items are out of stock, the platform must offer smart substitutes, seek customer approval, and update billing automatically.
Slot Management
Standard delivery versus express slots require different capacity windows, pricing, and driver allocation — with zone-level granularity.
Multi-Vendor Complexity
Marketplace models with multiple vendors require per-vendor inventory, separate payouts, unified search, and consistent customer experience.
Warehouse management
built for 10-minute delivery.
Zone-based warehouse layout, optimized pick paths, digital picking checklists, and handoff to dispatch — all designed around the speed requirements of hyperlocal grocery.
- Zone-based picking with optimized walk paths
- FIFO expiry management with visual alerts
- Barcode/QR scanning for pick verification
