GreenHarvest E-commerce Platform

Project Overview

GreenHarvest Organic Foods is a family-owned business that has been providing high-quality organic produce and grocery items to health-conscious consumers for over 15 years. While they had a strong local customer base through their physical stores, their existing e-commerce platform was outdated, difficult to maintain, and failed to convert visitors into customers.

Project Goals

The primary objectives for this project were:

• Create a modern, user-friendly online shopping experience that reflects GreenHarvest's brand values
• Increase online sales by at least 150% within the first year
• Reduce cart abandonment rate from 68% to under 30%
• Improve mobile shopping experience (62% of their traffic was mobile)
• Integrate inventory management with their physical stores
• Implement content marketing features to educate customers about organic foods

Tools & Technologies

We utilized a carefully selected stack of technologies to deliver optimal performance and scalability:
