Peakreach - Multi-Service Delivery Platform

Project Overview

Peakreach is a comprehensive delivery ecosystem designed to handle both food and parcel delivery services. I developed two critical components of this platform: the customer-facing mobile application that serves as the main touchpoint for users ordering food and sending parcels, and the vendor application that enables restaurants and food businesses to manage their operations seamlessly within the ecosystem.

The Challenge

Peakreach needed a unified platform that could:
Handle both food delivery and parcel/courier services in a single app
Provide vendors with powerful tools to manage orders and menus
Support real-time order tracking and updates
Scale to accommodate multiple service types beyond just food
Create a seamless experience across different user types
The goal was to build a super-app approach where customers could access multiple delivery services without switching between different applications.

What I Built

1. Customer Mobile Application (Flutter)

The main consumer-facing app that serves as the primary interface for all delivery services:
Core Features:
Dual Service Mode: Toggle between food delivery and parcel delivery
Restaurant Discovery: Browse restaurants by cuisine, ratings, distance, and delivery time
Parcel Booking: Simple flow for sending packages with size/weight options
Real-Time Tracking: Live GPS tracking for both food and parcel deliveries
Multiple Payment Methods: Cards, mobile money, and wallet integration
Order Management: History, reordering, and scheduled deliveries
In-App Support: Chat support and order issue reporting
Technical Implementation:
Built with Flutter for iOS and Android deployment
Bloc pattern for state management
Google Maps integration for location services
Firebase for real-time updates and notifications
RESTful API integration with backend services

2. Vendor Application (Flutter)

A dedicated app for restaurant partners to manage their presence on the platform:
Core Features:
Menu Management: Add, edit, and toggle item availability in real-time
Order Processing: Accept/reject orders with customizable preparation times
Business Analytics: Daily sales, popular items, and performance metrics
Promotion Tools: Create discounts and special offers
Operating Hours: Set custom hours and temporary closures
Multi-Branch Support: Manage multiple locations from one account
Inventory Alerts: Low stock notifications and automatic item disabling
Technical Implementation:
Flutter-based for consistency with customer app
Offline-first architecture for reliability
Push notifications for new orders
Integration with POS systems via API
Real-time synchronization with main platform

Technical Architecture

Shared Components

Both applications utilize:
Common UI component library for consistency
Shared authentication system
Unified notification service
Centralized API gateway for backend communication

Performance Optimizations

Image caching and lazy loading for menu items
Optimistic UI updates for better perceived performance
Background location updates for efficient battery usage
Offline mode for viewing previously loaded content

Design Approach

The UI/UX focused on creating distinct yet connected experiences:
Customer App:
Consumer-friendly interface with food imagery
Quick switch between food and parcel modes
Minimal steps from browse to checkout
Visual order status indicators
Vendor App:
Dashboard-first approach for quick overview
Tablet-optimized layouts for kitchen use
High contrast for visibility in restaurant environments
Sound alerts for new orders

Integration Points

While I didn't build the delivery agent app, both applications I developed were designed to interface seamlessly with the rider system:
Order handoff protocols
Status update webhooks
Location sharing APIs
Communication bridges between all parties

Results

The Peakreach ecosystem successfully launched with:
Smooth coordination between customer orders and vendor operations
Reduced order processing time for restaurants
Unified platform reducing the need for multiple delivery apps
Positive feedback on the intuitive dual-service approach

Key Achievements

Built two production-ready applications as part of larger ecosystem
Implemented real-time synchronization between customer and vendor apps
Created flexible architecture supporting multiple service types
Delivered on schedule with seamless integration to existing platform components
