Summary / TLDR
Loomora is a curated marketplace connecting independent craft makers with design-conscious buyers. The team needed a mobile marketplace that made product discovery, maker stories, multi-vendor inventory, and international checkout feel effortless.
Soance shaped the strategy, experience, and technical foundation around measurable user and operational needs, then translated the concept into a launch-ready digital product.
Overview
Loomora is a fictional artisan commerce company created for this representative portfolio story. Its operating context, user needs, and delivery constraints are modeled on realistic digital transformation engagements.
The core brief was to deliver a mobile marketplace that made product discovery, maker stories, multi-vendor inventory, and international checkout feel effortless while giving internal teams a system they could confidently operate, measure, and evolve after launch.
Services provided

Challenges
The project needed to balance a polished customer experience with the less-visible realities of content, operations, permissions, integrations, and long-term maintainability.
