The platform enables restaurants, grocery stores, bakeries, pharmacies, and other local vendors to operate digital storefronts under a unified system. By leveraging intelligent geolocation and spatial data, Flickbasket connects users with nearby vendors while maintaining category-specific workflows. The system includes robust vendor dashboards, a dynamic cart engine capable of handling diverse product types, and real-time order tracking for a seamless customer experience.
