“When Bistro.sk approached us in 2014 they already knew we are the right company for the job. We managed to build a production-ready MVP in a matter of weeks. Since then we tackled together many problems not only with mobile app development but also general product advice and many designs and usability improvements. Now Bistro.sk is Slovak leading food delivery service with over half a million satisfied customers.”
