Hyperlocal Grocery App Development

Job ID: 40135056

Budget: ₹37,500 – ₹75,000 INR

We are looking for an experienced mobile app developer / team to build a hyperlocal grocery delivery app similar to Blinkit / Zepto, designed to start small and scale gradually.

We will begin with 1 dark store serving 3 villages, and expand over time as:
• +2 villages → same store
• 8–10 villages → multiple dark stores
• Small town expansion later

The system must support easy addition of new dark stores and areas without rebuilding the app.


Customer App (Android)

• Area / village selection
• Product categories & search
• Cart & checkout
• COD + UPI payments
• Order status & history
• Push notifications

Delivery Experience
• Expected delivery time shown (30–60 minutes)
• Live rider location tracking after order is out for delivery
• ETA shown to customer (approx time remaining)

Promotions
• Referral system (invite & earn)
• Discount coupons at checkout
• Payment-based offers (e.g. extra discount on UPI)
• Event / festival offers
• Sponsored banners on home screen



Delivery Partner App (Android)
• Login
• Assigned orders
• Pickup from assigned dark store
• Live location sharing while on delivery
• Google Maps navigation
• Order status update (Picked / Delivered)
• Earnings summary



Dark Store / Merchant Panel (Web)

Admin Panel (Web)
• Add / manage multiple dark stores
• Map villages/areas to stores
• Rider-to-store assignment
• Manual order assignment
• Coupon, referral & banner management
• Sponsored products control
• Delivery radius & order limit control
• Basic reports & analytics


Tech Preference
• Flutter / React Native
• Firebase / Node.js backend
• Scalable architecture for future expansion

• Full source code ownership required

Note: We want a Blinkit-like user experience, optimized for villages and small towns (not a full enterprise clone).
