About the Client
Sky Growers is a family-owned regenerative farm based in Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand. Founded in 2023, they grow premium farm-fresh vegetables year-round — including coriander, spinach, beetroot, radish, cucumber, pumpkin, and spring onion — using sustainable agriculture practices that protect long-term soil health.
The Problem
Despite high-quality produce, Sky Growers relied on phone calls, in-person visits, and ad-hoc WhatsApp messages to take orders. Restaurants, grocery stores, and individual families had no way to browse live availability, place recurring bulk orders, or get reliable delivery updates.
- No public product catalog — customers had to ask what was in season
- Bulk wholesale orders handled manually over phone and email
- No delivery scheduling or order tracking for individual families
- Payment reconciliation was split across bank transfers, cash, and invoices
What We Built
- Seasonal e-commerce storefront with live produce availability
- Bulk-wholesale tiered pricing for restaurants, grocers, and institutions
- Subscription/reorder flows for recurring weekly vegetable boxes
- Delivery zone logic for Christchurch with free-delivery thresholds
- Stripe-powered checkout with automated invoicing and order management
The Results
Sky Growers now takes orders around the clock. Wholesale customers reorder three times faster through saved order templates. Individual families can subscribe to weekly boxes and track deliveries. Payment reconciliation is fully automated, and the farm team manages inventory from a single dashboard.
