Case Study: LeafTrade achieves a scalable cannabis order fulfillment platform with Vault Innovation

LeafTrade raises $4.5 million with Vault Innovation

LeafTrade, a company in the fast-growth cannabis industry, faced significant challenges with its order fulfillment platform. Their system caused delays and inaccuracies as dispensaries relied on phone calls and emails to place orders with vendors. The existing application was built in an ad-hoc fashion and lacked essential ecommerce features and the ability to scale. Vault Innovation was engaged to help design and develop a custom solution that could support a two-sided marketplace.

Vault Innovation addressed the challenge by migrating LeafTrade's platform to a new, more robust foundation using a forked version of the Saleor ecommerce framework built on Django and Python. The solution included a complete redesign, a standardized REST API, and deployment on redundant AWS infrastructure to ensure high availability. As a result, Vault Innovation delivered a functional, scalable product that helped LeafTrade raise $4.5 million in funding and win praise from users for its functionality and design.
