TryCargo One Click Store maker for your Business - twiliohackathon

TryCargo πŸ‘€ what is that?

TryCargo is a platform build for small scale stores to create their online stores without a fuss.

Motivation

we got this idea from the lock down of our country because of recent pandemic of COVID19 . because of the lock down people cannot reach stores to get their supplies and most of stores even supermarket in our country lacks IT infrastructure . because of that many people couldn't get supplies . hence we came up with TryCargo.

Problem addressed πŸ›’

most of the small scale stores lack IT infrastructure so they cannot compete in the online market.
and small scale business cannot afford those it infrastructure because they lack the capital investment and it involves huge risk.
but with this TryCargo platform will give the opportunity to create their own online store with great quality without a hustle.

Design of TryCargo πŸ“Š

tryCrago will cater 2 types of users

  • shop owner - shop owner can start the business with our platform

  • online customer - online customers can browse trycargo to find their needs and order them from their respective online stores
