Project Brief
CrayFish Kitchen offers home-cooked traditional African & Caribbean cuisine with delivery at your doorstep. The app allows an opportunity not only for food-lovers to get their favorite food but also allows home-based chefs or “food-lancers” as we call them, to be a part of the CrayFish Kitchen app.
Challenge
The most challenging part of the app was that the client wanted a platform for chefs and riders as well to be a part of the app, who could offer their services on freelance basis. The app wants to uplift anybody to be a chef after adequate training and attending cooking workshops conducted by CrayFish Kitchen. This multiplier phenomenon would let kitchens open up in as many neighborhoods as possible not only in Nigeria but throughout the globe.
Our Solution
The app was created with 3 different interfaces for Users, Chefs and Riders. An in-depth background screening is performed to approve Chef and Rider registration requests. Chefs and Riders must qualify through an official training program before they could use their apps to offer their respective services.
Chefs and Riders having their own apps to manage orders and delivery bookings respectively. Giving an equal opportunity to all.
We devised an inter-linked mechanism among the Users, Chefs and Riders. As soon as an order is placed by a user, it prompts on the chef’s dashboards with a notification. The moment a chef accepts the order, it is flashed on the Rider’s interface for acceptance – making it a completely independent job for all participants in a very efficient way.
