    Project Summary

    Urban Cart approached Hatzs to solve a familiar retail problem: customers abandoned carts when items showed in stock online but weren't available for pickup or delivery. The goal was a unified commerce platform that kept inventory, pricing, and customer records consistent across every channel in real time.

    Urban Cart needed a system that could handle seasonal traffic spikes without overselling or stale availability data. Hatzs prioritized real-time inventory synchronization and a headless architecture that could scale during peak events like Black Friday without over-provisioning year-round.

    Urban Cart approached Hatzs to solve a familiar retail problem: customers abandoned carts when items showed in stock online but weren't available for pickup or delivery.
