Our Work

eCommerce Consulting

In order to empower Buscapé to execute this change, we evaluated the business and market from a holistic perspective, allowing us to benchmark strong competitors and set the plan to become a best-in-class eCommerce marketplace.

Platform Implementation & Custom Software Development

To execute the plan, we put together an Agile Ship of 10 professionals, covering multiple areas from Product and UX/UI to Engineering, Infrastructure and even Growth. We focused our efforts on revamping the user experience for buyers, while creating a new platform for merchants with efficient flows and a scalable technology infrastructure. Automating new processes related to payments, order management and shipping was a critical part of the new software architecture.

By combining efforts with Eureka Labs, Buscapé was able to achieve greater profitability through the new revenue stream, while minimizing cannibalization on its existing business model.
