Overview
Shoplo is a full multi-vendor shopping marketplace, mega-sale merchandising, powerful product search, rich product pages, multi-store cart, vouchers, and a fast checkout, built to handle a huge, varied catalog.
The challenge
Marketplaces live or die on discovery and trust: shoppers need instant search across a massive catalog, believable ratings and reviews, and a checkout that handles items from multiple sellers, vouchers, and flash-sale pricing without confusion.
Our solution
We built Shoplo in React Native with an Elasticsearch-backed search and filtering layer, a merchandising home with flash sales and category browse, seller storefronts with ratings and followers, and a cart that groups items by store, applies per-store vouchers, and checks out in one flow.

Hard problems we solved
Instant search across a large, varied catalog required a tuned Elasticsearch layer with faceted filters and relevance ranking. A multi-vendor cart with per-store vouchers and split payouts meant careful order modeling and Stripe Connect handling.
Results & impact
Shoplo delivered a marketplace that makes a huge catalog feel searchable and trustworthy, fast discovery, seller transparency, and a multi-store checkout that just works.
