About Menus

Menus is a comprehensive food delivery platform designed for restaurant owners in Kuwait who manage multiple establishments with 2-3 branches each. The platform includes a customer-facing iOS app for convenient food ordering and delivery. It also provides administrative tools to manage operations across a three-tier business structure: Menus (umbrella level) → Individual Restaurants → Restaurant Branches.

Our solution addresses Kuwait’s unique area-based delivery pricing model while enabling centralized control and operational flexibility for each ocation.

Client’s Requirements

The restaurant owner approached Space-O Technologies, needing both a customer-facing food delivery app and comprehensive management tools for their expanding multi-restaurant business across Kuwait. Their existing manual processes were causing order delays and customer dissatisfaction, while drivers struggled with unclear priorities and coverage assignments.

The client required a complete ecosystem: a customer mobile app for menu browsing, ordering, and real-time order tracking; a driver app for delivery management; and centralized administrative tools for automated driver assignment, branch performance monitoring, and revenue tracking. They also needed support for Kuwait’s area-based delivery pricing model while maintaining operational flexibility across all locations.

Solution We Developed

Space-O Technologies developed Menus as a comprehensive solution that addresses the complex requirements of the client’s multi-brand restaurant network. Our food delivery app development for restaurant chains utilized a microservices-based architecture to ensure scalability and smooth performance even under high traffic loads.

The solution includes iOS app development for customers, a driver app, and web-based admin panels specifically designed for businesses managing multiple restaurant brands and their respective branches.

ReactJS for building responsive and intuitive user interfaces across web admin panels. This ensures a seamless user experience for restaurant managers and super admins.
NodeJS for robust backend development. It provides fast server-side processing and real-time order management capabilities.
Microservices architecture to ensure system scalability. This allows independent scaling of different platform components based on traffic and usage patterns.
Socket integration for real-time order tracking and live status updates across customer and driver applications.
Third-party payment gateway integration to handle secure transactions. This supports multiple payment methods and saved card management.
Advanced geographical mapping to overcome Kuwait’s limited geographical data challenges. It implements area-based delivery zone management.
