Next-Gen E-commerce Platform for Wine & Spirits with AR Experience

As a rapidly growing scale-up in the Wine & Spirits industry, our company is focused on innovating the digital shopping experience by developing a state-of-the-art e-commerce platform. We envision a platform that not only meets the functional needs of our customers but also exceeds their expectations through enhanced interactivity and personalization. The project will involve building a robust e-commerce solution using Shopify Plus or WooCommerce, integrated with powerful search capabilities powered by Algolia. We aim to implement a headless commerce architecture to allow for flexibility and scalability. A significant feature will be the incorporation of AR try-on experiences, enabling customers to visualize products in their space or get detailed product insights, directly enhancing the decision-making process. Additionally, the platform will support subscription models and integrate social commerce strategies to drive community engagement. Secure and diverse payment options including Stripe and PayPal will be essential to cater to global customers. A seamless user experience is paramount, and hence the use of Contentful for content management will help us deliver rich, dynamic content. Our timeline for this project is 6-10 weeks with an urgency level set to high, reflecting our commitment to rapidly adapt to market demands.
