[ Challenge ]

Building a Seamless Cafe-on-Wheels Experience

As more people work from home, the concept of suburban living evolves with the times. Zing was determined to provide its customers with an unprecedented level of convenience using data and advanced algorithms.

The challenge was to build a mobile app from scratch with a very short time-to-market, integrating fleet management, goods ordering, and smart push notifications, all while ensuring a seamless cross-platform experience for iOS and Android users.

[ Solution ]

Building the Solution

The Akveo team integrated branded fleet management and goods ordering solutions into the application. The app was built using React Native with TypeScript for type safety, and GraphQL via AWS Amplify to reduce similar API calls.

Key features delivered:

  • Map displaying nearest stops and cafe vehicles
  • Ordering and payment for coffee and related products
  • Latest order status display for collection
  • Smart push notifications for sales and rewards via OneSignal

Tech stack: React Native, TypeScript, AWS Amplify (GraphQL), Lottie (animations), UI Kitten, Bitrise CI/CD, Firebase App Distribution, Branch.io (deep links), OneSignal (push notifications).

Impact that Matters

[ Results]

Zing launched a fully functional mobile app in under two months, giving customers a seamless way to find nearby cafe vehicles, order ahead, and stay informed about promotions.

Shipped in under 2 months

The team built a fully working production app in less than two months by prioritizing features strategically and leveraging experience from prior startup projects.

Full ordering experience

Users can view the nearest stops on a map, order and pay for products, and see their latest order status directly in the app.
