The client wanted a solution that would serve as a reliable nutrition system for athletes and would help them improve their performance. The solution, as outlined by the client, should serve as a comprehensive system that could help sportsmen and athletes eat as per their body needs and dietary preferences.
Understanding the client’s requirement in-depth, Team Sufalamoutlined a detailed development strategy for the future of the solution. Keeping in mind the complex requirement, Sufalam started brainstorming a cutting-edge nutrition system to be offered to the end-users as a cross-platform mobile application.
