Cookmygrub is a UK-based food-tech startup redefining how communities access homemade meals by bridging the gap between passionate home chefs and customers seeking authentic, healthier food alternatives. With 250% growth in 2021, they needed scalable infrastructure and improved performance to handle rapid expansion across the UK.
The main challenges included rapid growth and scalability needs with 250% customer base growth requiring infrastructure to handle high volume orders, user experience consistency requiring intuitive ordering flow to compete with established apps, operational efficiency with manual deployment workflows, and performance monitoring needing proactive identification of bottlenecks.
We redesigned and optimized the web interface with React + TypeScript ensuring intuitive navigation and faster load times, streamlined the ordering flow for one-click hassle-free food ordering experience, ensured full responsiveness for consistent experiences across devices, and implemented AI/ML-driven personalization for recommended meals.
Cookmygrub achieved scalable growth with infrastructure supporting 10x projected user growth and 200+ chef onboarding, improved performance with faster load times and high uptime reliability, enhanced user experience with seamless responsive interface strengthening customer trust, operational efficiency through automated CI/CD, and strengthened community impact empowering home chefs across the UK.
We implemented Node.js + Express backend optimized for high-performance API responses, integrated MySQL and AWS DynamoDB for structured and scalable data storage, built CI/CD pipelines with GitHub and Kubernetes for zero-downtime deployments, automated infrastructure monitoring with Datadog, and leveraged Docker + Kubernetes clusters for scalability supporting hundreds of chefs without backend strain.
