10 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The following description is of exemplary embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope, applicability or configuration of the invention in any way. Rather, the following description provides a convenient illustration for implementing exemplary embodiments of the invention. Various changes to the described
15 embodiments may be made in the function and arrangement of the elements described without departing from the scope of the invention.

The present invention relates to e-commerce and is aimed at improving the outreach of local vendors. Local vendors are the backbone of the local markets in cities and
20 towns, and the research has concluded that they struggle to reach their desired customers to their full potential. To address this problem, a website has been proposed that provides the exact location of street vendors, which allows users to access goods and services with ease. The website categorizes vendors into different categories, including vegetable vendors, milk vendors, and scrap vendors, making
25 it easier for users to find what they are looking for.
• The website also provides comprehensive information about each vendor, such as the products and services they offer. Additionally, the website offers a convenient platform for users to interact with vendors, allowing them to post reviews and ratings about vendors. This feedback system helps to ensure that only the best vendors are listed on the website, providing users with a high-quality shopping experience.
• To provide the desired features, the website employs some critical technical specifications such as live geo-location of vendors and customers, push notifications and SMS, payment integration, automated delivery scheduling, and rewards for the top customers.
• The push notification and SMS feature notifies vendors at various stages of the order process, such as when the vendor accepts the request, reaches the order location, or if the order is canceled.
• The application consists of three interfaces: The Vendors application, the
10 Customer application, and the admin panel, which manages and monitors the application's functioning. The customer interface features registration, fare calculation based on location, order tracking, payment, messaging, calling, and driver rating and analysis. The vendor interface provides complete information on the vendor's profile and status, trip alerts, push notifications, reports, and specific
15 delivery time slots. The automated reward generating system based on the customer's purchase amount is one of the unique features.
• The admin panel's features include Customer and Vendor's Details Management (CRM), Booking Management, Vehicle Detail Management (if self-owned), Location and Fares Management, Call System Management, Communication,
20 Ratings, and Reviews, Promotions and Discounts, Payroll Management, Content Management, and Customer Support and Help.
• The application's work involves a login and authentication procedure, where the client logs in using their credentials, and the portal authenticates the client based on the information in the database. If the client's credentials are valid, the user
25 dashboard is displayed, showing various options such as search products, edit profile, select language, and view reports. To purchase or book products, the user selects parameters in the search category and adds products to the cart or selects a time slot to meet the vendor at their doorstep. For vendors such as scrap vendors, users can book a time slot, and the live locations of the vendors are displayed on
30 the screen. Vendors are notified, and the booking is valid only after confirmation. Vendors are selected on a first-come, first-served basis.
While considerable emphasis has been placed herein on the specific features of the preferred embodiment, it will be appreciated that many additional features can be added and that many changes can be made in the preferred embodiment without departing from the principles of the disclosure. These and other changes in the preferred embodiment of the disclosure will be apparent to those skilled in the art from the disclosure herein, whereby it is to be distinctly understood that the foregoing descriptive matter is to be interpreted merely as illustrative of the disclosure and not as a limitation.

The main novel aspects of this invention are:
? Synchronization of the customer’s shopping list from the store app in his mobile device with the shopping cart device using an easy mechanism such as QR-codes/NFC.
? Generation and Display of the optimal In-store route map of the items that the customer wishes to purchase
? Dynamic nature of the In-store route map based on:
? Availability of items
? Traffic/Congestion along the different aisles of the store
? Rendering of in-store offers on products or related items (e.g. 2-for-the-price-of-1 offers, Free products, Reduced prices, etc.)
? Rendering of brand ads in association with programmatic ad sources based on the location of the cart in the store. (e.g. showing ads for competitors for various biscuit brands along the biscuits aisle)

The benefits include:
? Increased capability for the retail store to service more customers within a shorter time period
? Better shopping experience for the customer
o Ability to synchronize their shopping lists
o Easy navigation to the right product locations within the store
o Easy Information on product availability and product offers
o Ads from competitors (alternate products)
o Faster shopping and checkout
? The new stream of income for the store through integration with ad-tech companies A detailed explanation:
? The customer has the Store’s mobile app installed on his mobile device. The mobile app will have the facility to register/save the customer’s shopping list.
? The customer arrives at the Store, and gets hold of the Shopping cart installed with our device (hardware device with its associated software).
? The customer uses his mobile device’s scanner to scan the QR-Code of the shopping cart device, by which his shopping list synchronizes with the shopping

cart device. (We could have other modes of synchronization like NFC, Bluetooth, WiFi etc.)
? The shopping cart device has an LCD display wherein the customer can see his list of items to be purchased.
? The system then generates a customized in-store route map covering all the items to be purchased based on the location of the items along the aisles of the store.
? The said route map is dynamic in nature in the sense that it adapts to the current conditions such as the availability of the items in the customer’s shopping list.
? The route map also considers the footfall in the store and routes the customer through less crowded aisles based on the traffic of other customers in various aisles. This ensures that the customer doesn’t have to wade through crowded aisles.
? The system has integrations with the Store’s inventory system which provides information such as availability, price, location within the store, offers applicable, alternate products from other brands etc.
? The system also runs location-based ads on the display. i.e. if the customer is passing through the shoe aisle, various shoe brands such as Nike, Adidas, Puma, Reebok, Fila, and others can show their ads to the customer right at that moment. This greatly increases the chance of more impulse buys, thus increasing sales for the store and the various brands. , Claims:We Claim:
