Executive Summary
PrestoEat is a food and grocery delivery platform serving customers, restaurants, grocery vendors, riders, and internal operations across Libya. The product is publicly available at presto.app with customer apps on iOS and Android.
Over one year, iCodeLTD fully built PrestoEat's delivery and grocery startup ecosystem — spanning customer iOS and Android apps, food and grocery delivery workflows, rider and vendor operations, admin tools, backend/API systems, payments, order management, push notifications, maps and location features, maintenance, bug fixing, refactoring, and ongoing improvements.
The engagement was complex because PrestoEat is a multi-sided marketplace, not a single consumer app. Customers, restaurants, grocery vendors, riders, and internal teams all needed connected workflows backed by reliable backend systems, payments, notifications, and location coordination.
As a startup ecosystem, the platform had to support real-world ordering, delivery coordination, vendor operations, and customer experience at scale — while remaining stable enough to improve continuously as the business grew.

Challenges
PrestoEat required more than a consumer ordering app — the platform had to support a live, multi-sided delivery business across food, grocery, riders, vendors, and internal operations.
PrestoEat connects customers, restaurants, grocery vendors, riders, and internal teams in one delivery business. Each role depends on different workflows, permissions, and operational visibility — making a single-app mindset insufficient for the product.
The product needed to support both restaurant food delivery and grocery delivery inside one ecosystem. That meant different vendor types, product catalogs, ordering flows, fulfillment requirements, and operational coordination across two major delivery categories.
Delivery success depends on accurate order movement, rider assignment, and location-based updates. Customer visibility, rider workflows, and maps/location features all needed to work together reliably across a live delivery network.
Restaurants and grocery vendors needed practical workflows to manage platform activity, while internal teams required admin tools to oversee users, orders, vendors, riders, payments, and day-to-day platform operations.
From checkout through fulfillment and delivery updates, the platform's payments, push notifications, and order management systems had to stay dependable. Any breakdown in these core flows would directly affect customer trust and operational continuity.
Beyond initial build, PrestoEat needed ongoing maintenance, bug fixing, refactoring, and product improvements across a live ecosystem — without destabilizing the ordering, delivery, and operational systems the business depended on.
