Digital Modernization for Book Delivery Service
3 years (and counting) powering Choice Books’ digital transformation.
Highlights / Intro

Solution
unosquare deployed a nearshore engineering team consisting of software engineers, QA, design, and product leadership.
Together, they:
Sunset legacy hardware and Dot Matrix printers across vans and warehouses.
