— THE CHALLENGE
A new business needed a complete online home.
Chef Fabio wanted to take his Italian cooking beyond the dining room through a virtual kitchen and nationwide meal delivery. With no existing website or online audience to build on, the launch needed to explain the brand and support ordering from day one.

No established online audience at launch
Nationwide delivery needed a dedicated ordering flow
First-time visitors needed to understand the chef’s brand
The mobile experience had to support meal shopping
The launch needed technical SEO foundations
