Hundreds of beer, wine, and spirits brands rely on Grappos product locators: widgets that show their website visitors where to find and purchase their products. Designli assisted with a ground-up overhaul of the Grappos software system after 12 years of successful SaaS business operation.
Like many great startups, Grappos was born out of a frustrating personal experience. Founder Eric Kunisawa set about picking up a bottle of his wife’s favorite wine, but wasn’t able to find it - and instead had to scour LA for what should have been a common, $12 bottle of wine. He figured there must be a better way to do this, and thought a software platform could help.

Launched in 2008, today, Grappos is a powerhouse that serves some of the biggest and most popular wine industry labels. Grappos was built as a mobile-responsive web-app, using Angular and NodeJS, hosted on Amazon Web Services, with tight integration to MapBox for geocoding addresses into coordinates on the map. This project was tackled with an Agile, Sprint-based Methodology, and Designli continues to help Eric and the Grappos team with ongoing iteration and support.
