Role

Reefer’s B2C interface connects medical cannabis patients with pharmacies through a streamlined digital platform. Patients can browse products, place orders, and track deliveries in real-time, benefiting from personalized recommendations and secure payments. The interface ensures a smooth, user-friendly experience while linking directly to pharmacy services.

01 Problem Space

"Every month, dozens of new products come out, and I can't find the right one for me anymore."

The medical cannabis industry in Israel is heavily influenced by politics. Pharmacies tend to stock products that are most profitable for them, rather than the products specifically needed by patients, creating a gap in their treatment continuity.

Refer was born out of a vision to address the issue of treatment continuity in the Israeli cannabis market. The idea is to give patients access to a wide range of products nationwide, allowing them to choose from available stock at any pharmacy they prefer, without wasting time and energy searching.

02 The Challenge

The primary challenge was to design a B2B interface for pharmacies that seamlessly integrates with existing systems to manage medical cannabis. The goal was to create a unified platform that simplifies inventory management, order processing, and delivery tracking. This required ensuring compatibility with various pharmacy systems while providing an intuitive, efficient user experience to streamline the entire supply chain from a single interface.

The most challenging aspect of screen design was addressing the business model conflict. Since the service relied on pharmacy deliveries (by law, deliveries can only be made by pharmacy couriers), some pharmacies didn’t offer delivery and only allowed in-store pickup. Additionally, orders couldn’t be consolidated, leading to the need for separate delivery costs from two pharmacies.

As a solution, I defined a system feature that allows choosing an order from one pharmacy only, either through the product page or by entering a specific pharmacy page.

03 Wireframing

After researching and analyzing design patterns that fit the information architecture, business goals, and user needs, I sketched solutions. Using rapid-prototyping to move forward thoughts and ideas, I focused mainly on meeting the How Might We in an iterative process.
