About the project

Madras Mandi — what we built and why.

A B2B & B2C wholesale grocery application for Jay Trading group who've been in this business since 1960.

Challenges

What we had to solve.

A six-decade-old wholesale grocery business translated into a modern app — without losing the trust customers built over years of phone-based ordering.

  • 01

    Translate a paper-and-phone wholesale operation into a modern app without losing the trust customers built over decades.

  • 02

    Serve two distinct audiences — bulk-ordering retailers and consumer households — from one product without compromising either.

  • 03

    Handle dynamic wholesale pricing tiers and credit terms on a per-customer basis.

  • 04

    Route, batch, and track orders across a fleet of delivery partners with live status.

  • 05

    Onboard staff who had never used a tablet without weeks of training.
