Gemar UK enlisted Velocity to build a mobile-first commerce platform that would streamline wholesale and retail ordering. Using Flutter, we created an app that melds smart barcode scanning, consistent B2B and B2C buying experiences, and easy backend integrations into one unified experience. The end-result is a powerful mobile platform that makes ordering simple, streamlines operations, and gives every customer a faster buying experience.

Product UI

Objectives

Gemar's initial requirement was a mobile app to enable wholesale customers to scan barcodes of products they want more information on and immediately access product details. This idea developed into a mobile commerce solution that could service both wholesale and retail customers. There was a need for an easy product discovery process that would speed up ordering, allow for real time syncing of business data and provide a seamless purchasing process for many types of customers.

Problem

Gemar's previous ordering process required manually searching for products and having separate purchasing processes. It was slow and cumbersome for customers to order. Wholesale buyers needed to search for products faster, and retail customers wanted a streamlined mobile experience like they're used to with other shopping apps. Gemar also needed all of their inventory, pricing and customer data to stay in sync, since there was no single source of truth and the systems weren't connected in real-time.

Solution

Velocity created an optimized Flutter app that unifies product discovery, ordering, and account management into one smart platform. Add real-time barcode scanning capability to your ecommerce experience and allow customers to view products, manage orders and make purchases using just their phone. Velocity’s solution allows for separate buy paths for wholesale and retail customers, tied together with a single backend. Integrated with inventory, pricing, and customer databases you can be sure your information is seamless and consistent across all touchpoints. <b>"Gemar transformed mobile ordering into a faster, smarter, and fully connected commerce experience for wholesale and retail customers alike."</b>
