Project Brief

Taking an established retailer fully digital

WooCommerce Payment Gateway Inventory Sync Mobile-First SSL CDN / WebP

Mr. Elsrougy is a well-known retail brand with a loyal offline customer base. The brief was clear: build a digital sales channel that matches the quality of the in-store experience, handles complex product variations at scale, and earns customer trust fast in a competitive online market.

Unicode Agency delivered a complete e-commerce solution: from information architecture and UX design to backend integration and performance optimisation, all in a single focused engagement.

What We Built

Three pillars of a frictionless store

Every feature decision was made with one question: does this help a customer find what they want, trust the site, and complete their purchase?

Smart Shopping Experience

Customers find products instantly through dynamic search, advanced category filters, and quick-view overlays โ€” all without leaving the current page.

  • Real-time product search
  • Multi-facet filtering
  • Quick-view overlays
  • Persistent wishlist

Secure Payments

Multiple payment paths built on encrypted infrastructure, so every customer can pay confidently โ€” whether they have an account or not.

  • End-to-end encrypted transactions
  • Local & international gateways
  • Guest checkout
  • Automated invoicing

Mobile-First UX

Designed for thumbs first โ€” smooth navigation, instant loads, and an app-like feel that keeps mobile shoppers engaged from browse to checkout.

  • Touch-optimised navigation
  • Sub-2s load on 4G
  • App-like gestures
  • Adaptive WebP images
Problem Solving

Three hard problems, three clear solutions

Challenge

Real-time inventory management across dozens of product categories and variants, keeping the frontend always in sync with actual stock.

Solution

Built an automated inventory sync layer connecting the backend to the storefront, with out-of-stock flags and restock alerts updating instantly.

Challenge

Earning customer trust for online payments in a market where many shoppers are cautious about entering card details on unfamiliar platforms.

Solution

Implemented SSL site-wide, integrated recognisable payment badges at checkout, and structured the flow to surface security indicators at every step.

Challenge

Maintaining fast load times with hundreds of high-resolution product images, particularly on mobile connections.

Solution

Deployed lazy loading, automatic WebP conversion, and CDN-level caching โ€” cutting image payload by over 60%.
