The challenge

Before 2019, Dawn Foods handled all orders in person or by phone. The company needed an agile, scalable online ordering platform that could support its extensive bakery product catalog while letting non-technical business users manage content directly.

The solution

Dawn Foods built its e-commerce experience on Contentstack's MACH (microservices, API-first, cloud-native, headless) architecture, prioritizing ease of use so business users could manage content without technical skills.

Content updates in our site run 80% faster compared to a monolith CMS. In some cases, the content that could take up to a week to publish using a monolith CMS, we can publish in less than an hour with Contentstack.
