Procsea – Revolutionizing Fresh Produce Trade with Real-Time Trading Platform
Procsea, a disruptive startup in the realm of fresh produce trade, is transforming the way transactions and transport logistics are managed between countries with diverse time zones, currencies, languages, and import laws. With a mission to eliminate middlemen, reduce transport times, and minimize food waste, Procsea connects buyers directly with suppliers, facilitating the delivery of fresher produce to consumers worldwide.
A Testament to Reliability and Innovation
From the inception of the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) to the subsequent iterations and enhancements, Cruncher played a pivotal role in crafting a robust and user-centric trading platform. Renaud's, Procsea's CEO-to-be, detailed wireframes provided a solid foundation, with Cruncher's expertise refining the interface and functionality to meet the needs of Procsea's global clientele.
Cruncher created a reliable product, and once the MVP launched, they helped us improve the product and recruit our internal team. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again for a new venture.
Empowering Seamless Trade Across Borders
At the core of Procsea's platform lies a responsive and dynamic marketplace, enabling buyers to seamlessly order fresh produce from anywhere in the world. Cruncher's expertise in online shop development was put to the test, as Procsea's unique requirements demanded a solution capable of managing transactions, transport logistics, and real-time updates across multiple time zones and trading environments. Leveraging WebSockets for real-time messaging and a REST API for seamless data exchange, Cruncher developed a responsive interface that adapts to users' needs while ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
Driving Innovation Through Collaboration
Procsea's launch in September 2016 marked the beginning of a fruitful partnership with Cruncher, extending beyond the development phase. As Procsea expanded its team and operations, Cruncher remained a trusted partner, leading feature sprints, providing technical guidance, and facilitating the training of new developers. The collaboration between Procsea and Cruncher exemplifies the power of partnership and innovation in driving transformative change within the fresh produce industry.
