About Bombay Sweet Shop

A contemporary venture started in 2020 by Hunger Inc. (renowned for ‘The Bombay Canteen’ and ‘O Pedro’) Bombay Sweet Shop is a traditional Indian confectionary store.

Inspired by ethos of 'Re-creation,' the team explores the art of gifting sweets through a fresh perspective. Delving into India's rich culinary heritage, Bombay Sweet Shop crafts unique confections by adding a unique surprise into familiar flavors and presentations.

Bombay Sweet Shop delivers pan-India from its D2C store in Mumbai.

The Challenge

Keeping the rich, cultural and seasonal heritage of Indian sweets in mind, Bombay Sweet Shop wanted a modern, appealing online presence to attract a wide range of customers.

The brand wanted to partner with us to rebrand their ecommerce site from scratch.

Structural design:
  • The objective: An immersive e-commerce website that would replicate the in-store shopping experience, but also struck the perfect balance between aesthetics and functionality.
Intuitive, user-friendly navigation:
  • The team wanted consistent design and simplified mobile-friendly navigation that effectively communicated product information.
Delivery support:
  • Bombay Sweet Shop knew the online store would need to be constantly updated since to most products had a short shelf-life. They also provided same-day delivery for select products in select pin-codes.
  • The team wanted the website to easily adapt to seasonal, festival or event-based product launches (Diwali, or Cricket World Cup).
Help with continuous growth:
  • The team wanted to create a seamless upselling experience mirroring in-store purchases. This would help them drive business growth for loyal and big-order customers.

Categorization of product pages:

With the structure and design specifications provided by the team, we developed a fully-responsive website with built-in features to enhance user engagement:

  • Developed pin-code-driven product availability or visibility to simplify the user’s buyer experience.
  • Provided the team with complete management of product and stock availability on the website to reduce ‘out-of-stock’ or ‘order vs stock’ mismatch.
  • Created separate pages for bulk orders and gifting, covering special occasions like weddings or birthdays.
Set up ‘Last-mile delivery’ automation:

We ensured the Bombay Sweet Shop website could easily adapt to seasonal, festival or event based product launches or promotions. (Mango season, Diwali, or a Cricket match).

  • Provided the team with complete control over accepting same-day orders on peak delivery days such as Diwali with just one touch.
  • Carefully planned ‘Last-mile delivery’ to group products by delivery date to help users track orders with ease.
  • Adapted time-sensitive, same-day shipment with customized Express or Free shipping calendar to help users receive orders on time.

  • Implemented product-sampling exclusively for loyal customers throughout their lifecycle.
