Pink Coconuts is a vibrant travel platform designed for LGBTQ+ travelers discovering the Caribbean. Partnering with No-Code District and SP Business Group, the team set out to strengthen the platform’s foundation — improving usability, visual design, and technical performance while paving the way for future growth.
Challenge and Context
Pink Coconuts had grown quickly but faced a common hurdle: a platform that no longer matched its ambitions.
Navigation was slow, the interface inconsistent, and essential tools like SEO, onboarding, and data management were missing or broken.
To support the brand’s mission and expand globally, the platform needed to be faster, easier to maintain, and ready to scale — both technically and strategically.
Objectives
- Simplify and enhance the user experience for travelers and partners.
- Strengthen the technical structure for long-term scalability.
- Improve data capture, navigation, and responsiveness.
- Create a consistent brand experience across the platform.
- Build a roadmap for growth, SEO, and content management.
