Executive Summary

Delivered a tenant-aware ordering marketplace where any restaurant can sign up, manage its menu, receive and process orders, and view sales reports — all from one unified system while maintaining tenant isolation and easy onboarding.

What We Did

Built the full stack for a multi-tenant SaaS: a responsive React + SCSS frontend, a robust API layer, and a centralized SQL datastore with tenant-aware schemas and migrations to safely separate client data.

Challenges

  • Serving multiple restaurants from the same codebase while keeping data isolated.
  • Providing a performant UI for customers ordering on mobile and desktop.
  • Handling peak-order loads and ensuring order routing to correct restaurants.

Solutions

  • Implemented multi-tenant patterns at the database and application layer to isolate client data.
  • Built a React frontend with SCSS for a responsive, mobile-first customer experience.
  • Designed REST APIs and background workers for reliable order processing and delivery notifications.

Implementation Process

  1. Requirements and tenant model design (single database with tenant scoping).
  2. API design and SQL schema creation with tenant-aware queries and migrations.
  3. Frontend development in React + SCSS (customer ordering flows, restaurant admin dashboards).
  4. Testing: tenancy isolation, load testing, and end-to-end order flows.
  5. Onboarding docs and a simple onboarding wizard for restaurants.

Results & Impact

  • A single codebase capable of supporting many restaurants with isolated data stores.
  • Improved customer ordering UX with consistent responsive design.
  • Streamlined onboarding for restaurants, reducing time-to-live for new clients.

Client Remarks

The platform let us open up to many restaurants quickly — onboarding and order management became far easier.
