Food Express – Next-Generation Grocery & Meal Delivery Platform

Project Overview

We developed a FoodTech solution for ultra-fast grocery and meal delivery, designed to handle millions of users in real time. Powered by a microservices architecture, the platform ensures extreme stability, lightning-fast performance, and near-zero downtime. If one service is underutilized, resources can be reallocated instantly, while other services automatically scale to handle peak traffic. The result is a fault-tolerant ecosystem built for efficiency and growth.
