I bet you must have faced this problem- You’re driving to work or heading to a friend’s place. You’re hungry, and you know you’ll need a quick snack soon. But standing in line at a crowded restaurant? Or waiting for a delivery guy? Nope, that’s not happening.
What if you could place an order at your favorite food joint through an app, pick it up on your way, and save time? No drama, no waiting. Sounds cool, right?
This is exactly what one of RainDrops Infotech’s clients wanted. They had a simple but brilliant idea—to make food ordering faster and easier without the hassle of deliveries. And guess what? RainDrops Infotech turned this idea of a multivendor e-commerce app into a reality.
Here’s the story of how this custom food ordering app came to life, step by step.
The client didn’t want a regular food delivery app like Zomato or Swiggy. They had a twist in mind:
The idea wasn’t just unique, it solved real problems. Vendors wouldn’t have to depend on delivery partners, which saved them money. Customers would have more control over their orders. And food lovers could skip the waiting game altogether.
It was all about bridging the gap between food vendors and customers. And that’s exactly what was in our mind while building this custom app development solution.
Let me tell you, building this multivendor e-commerce app wasn’t as simple as it sounds. There were a few challenges along the way:
Domestic clients sometimes come with great ideas that look amazing on paper but aren’t technically practical. For example, the client wanted some advanced features that sounded cool but didn’t align with the app’s purpose or budget. RainDrops Infotech worked closely with the client to educate them, refine their vision, and focus on features that mattered most.
This is the general problem we face- when the idealistic ideas don’t meet the logical standards.
The app had to be easy to use. Whether it’s a tech-savvy user or someone new to smartphones, this custom food ordering app needed to feel smooth and intuitive. This meant designing a clean and simple interface.
Here’s how RainDrops Infotech approached the project:
The first step was a detailed meeting. RainDrops asked the client:
After multiple discussions, the project was split into two phases. The first phase focused on restaurants and basic app functionalities. The second phase (which is coming soon) will expand the platform further.
Our team got to work, using:
Can you guess how much time it took us to complete the app? Just 1-1.5 months—quick, right?
This wasn’t a one-way process. RainDrops Infotech believes in collaboration. We made sure that our client was involved at every stage, listened to feedback, and then made changes to ensure this multivendor e-commerce app was exactly what the client wanted.
Now, let’s talk about the app itself. What did RainDrops Infotech deliver in Phase 1?
This is the star of the app. Customers can order food from nearby vendors and pick it up themselves, saving time and avoiding delivery charges.
Food vendors can join the platform easily. Onboarding is quick and hassle-free.
With Razorpay integration, customers and vendors can trust that payments are safe and reliable.
This custom food ordering app is super simple to use. Even someone new to apps can navigate it without any confusion.
The client was thrilled with the results. The app turned out exactly as they had hoped—smooth, functional, and effective. Currently, it works perfectly, and the customers love the ease of use. We made sure our team was professional, quick, and always open to feedback.
Also, the app’s user base is growing, and it’s becoming a favorite among vendors and customers alike.
The story doesn’t end here. Phase 2 is where things get even more exciting.
Let’s talk about something you probably already know but may not think about much—local food vendors. You know, the chaat stalls on the street corner, the guy selling fresh dosas on his cart, or the auntie making delicious tiffins from her home kitchen.
These small food businesses are everywhere, and guess what? They make up a HUGE part of the food industry. From local snacks to home-style meals, this unorganized food market is packed with variety, flavor, and potential.
But here’s the problem:
Most of these vendors don’t use apps or technology to sell their food. They depend on word of mouth or people just passing by. This means they’re missing out on a lot of customers who might love their food if they knew about it.
That’s why RainDrops Infotech wants to bring them on board. The plan for Phase 2 of the app is to give these vendors a chance to grow. With this platform, even the smallest vendor—whether it’s a tea stall or a home chef—can reach more people and run their business more smoothly.
Here’s why this matters:
The unorganized food market holds great financial potential. These vendors might not have big restaurants or fancy equipment, but they have great food, and that’s what people care about.
When Phase 2 launches, this multivendor e-commerce app won’t just connect people to food. It’ll connect people to stories, cultures, and flavors that they wouldn’t have found otherwise. And that’s the kind of impact we love to create.
Imagine paying a small fee every month to enjoy exclusive discounts and benefits. That’s the goal for Phase 2—a subscription model that keeps customers coming back for more.
Phase 2 is still in the planning stages as the client is working on funding, but when it goes live, it’s going to be a game-changer.
