YEMA Product Life Manager (PLM)
YEMA is a specialized supermarket that offers
the healthiest products at the lowest prices in Mexico
Project Overview
The project's objective was to define the digital experience and aesthetics of YEMA. As a newly established startup, the strategy was to have online sales account for 100% of the sales in the first year, with a subsequent shift to 60% in the following years. This presented a significant opportunity to collaborate closely with the Development team, working together to ensure the best experience for users."

Market Research
Key Findings
Through an analysis of competitors, it becomes evident that there is an opportunity to develop an E-Commerce platform that comprehends the distinct ways consumers of this type navigate and interact with information. Adopting this approach will not only set us apart but also provide a competitive edge.
User Persona
Contextualizing the target audience's needs with a health-focused supermarket and recognizing the absence of a comprehensive one-stop shopping option that aligns with their needs and goals, enables us to shape a tangible, representative persona. Constructed solely from our research findings and interview quotes, we've synthesized a user persona.
Final Look
Here are the final designs for the E-Commerce.
