My pre-launch marketplace venture for Bangladesh, spanning customer discovery and the operational systems behind shops, catalogue, stock, orders, and returns.
A marketplace is not a larger product grid. Shop ownership, variants, stock, promotions, and order states must remain coherent as the system grows.
Product
A substantially built storefront and operations system designed around multiple shops, a unified catalogue, customer and account flows, checkout, and admin control.
My role
Product architecture, storefront UX, backend structure, admin workflows, and commerce data modeling.
Outcome / status
A substantially built pre-launch marketplace venture now progressing toward shop and merchant onboarding.
