Overview

Wholesale & retail irrigation, in one app

Shoption is a dual-sided trade platform for irrigation in India. It serves farmers (B2C) buying directly and dealers (B2B) sourcing at wholesale — both in a single, searchable app with a catalog of 2 lakh+ products across motor-pumps, pipes, cables, drip systems and hundreds of brands.

I built the Shoption mobile app from scratch in Flutter on a scalable Clean Architecture with Riverpod, delivering a fast, consistent experience across iOS and Android from a single codebase.

The Challenge & Goals

The Challenge

Both farmers and dealers traditionally source irrigation products through scattered local shops, phone calls and paper catalogs — slow, with inconsistent pricing and little visibility into the full range available. The goal was to digitize sourcing for both audiences into one fast, reliable catalog that could handle a very large product range.

The Goals

  • Searchable catalog of 2 lakh+ products
  • Browse by category & brand
  • Wholesale pricing with minimum order quantities
  • In-app ordering & payments
  • Smooth performance at catalog scale
Key Features

What Shoption does

Massive Catalog

2 lakh+ products spanning motor-pumps, pipes, cables, drip systems and more.

Search Products & Suppliers

Fast search across the entire catalog to find products and suppliers in seconds.

Categories & Brands

Browse by category and explore products from hundreds of top brands.

Wholesale Pricing & MOQ

B2B pricing with minimum order quantities tailored to retailers.

Deals & Offers

Highlighted top deals and discounts to help retailers buy at the best price.

Engineering Highlight

Built to handle 2 lakh+ products

The biggest challenge was keeping the app fast with an enormous catalog. A Clean Architecture with Riverpod kept state predictable and the code maintainable, while efficient search, lazy-loaded lists and caching kept browsing smooth — even across hundreds of thousands of products and many categories and brands.

Tech & Architecture

How it's built

The mobile app is built on a modular Clean Architecture in Flutter with Riverpod for state management and Firebase for backend services and push notifications, with integrated payments for ordering. Designs were handed off and implemented pixel-perfect from Figma.
