The problem

One store, two very different shoppers.

01Challenge 1 of 1

Distinct Target Audiences

The App needed to serve two primary audience groups: Middle Eastern users seeking familiar groceries and non-Middle Eastern users interested in exploring culturally authentic food. The App needed to balance familiarity and discovery within a single intuitive experience.
