Background

Introducing Hungry Hugger, a Hong Kong-based startup with a delectable mission: to create a marketplace for all things food-related. From workshops to festivals, recipes, craft products, and merch, they're the go-to hub where food enthusiasts connect with skilled food makers.

Challenge

Hungry Hugger encountered several hurdles while building their platform. They needed to develop a sophisticated marketplace capable of handling diverse items, with streamlined processes for food makers to add products and for admins to moderate content.

Additionally, they aimed to create separate sections for food makers and food lovers based on their roles. Implementing a customizable promotional system for food makers was also a priority, along with rigorous quality assurance to ensure seamless platform performance.

Moreover, integrating a payment system for seamless transactions within the platform and providing food makers with the ability to easily track their incomes and withdraw earnings to their bank accounts were essential features.

Solution

Wild.Codes Lab rose to the occasion, offering Hungry Hugger a comprehensive solution by assembling a dedicated team of highly skilled experts and developers.

Business analysts meticulously planned each feature, providing thorough descriptions to guide development.

The QA team meticulously prepared test cases, leaving no user flow overlooked during development.

To expedite user acquisition, the project was segmented into several mini-MVP (Minimum Viable Product) projects. These were delivered and released sequentially, enabling incremental improvements and ensuring users could start benefiting from the platform's functionality promptly.
