About Our Client
The client is a fast-growing startup based in Canada, focused on empowering local businesses by providing a unified online marketplace where multiple vendors can list, sell, and manage their products. Their goal was to strengthen local economies and make it easier for small businesses to compete online.
Challenge
The client envisioned a multi-vendor marketplace that would allow dozens of local sellers to onboard easily, manage products, process orders, and receive payments — all within a seamless platform.
Key challenges included:
- Providing customers with a fast, mobile-friendly, and secure shopping experience.
- Designing an intuitive vendor onboarding and management system.
- Building a scalable architecture to handle high user traffic and product catalog growth.
- Ensuring smooth payment processing and vendor-specific payout tracking.
Solution
Our team developed a robust multi-vendor marketplace platform using a microservices-based architecture with React on the frontend and Node.js on the backend. We integrated MongoDB for flexible data handling and AWS services for scalability.
Key solution features included:
- Scalable cloud infrastructure: AWS auto-scaling and S3 for media storage ensured the platform stayed performant under load.
- Vendor onboarding & dashboards: Simple registration, product management, inventory tracking, and order status updates.
- Customer experience: Advanced product search, filtering, reviews, and seamless checkout.
- Payment integration: Secure payments via Stripe, with automated split payouts to vendors.
- Admin control panel: Centralized management of vendors, commissions, disputes, and analytics.
- Mobile-first design: Fully responsive UI for smooth experiences across devices.
Results
- 100+ local vendors onboarded within the first 3 months of launch.
- 30% faster page loads compared to the initial prototype.
- 99.9% uptime post-deployment, ensuring uninterrupted service.
- The average checkout abandonment rate reduced by 25%.
- The client reported a 40% increase in monthly sales volume after launch.
