PROJECTS
Market Basket Recommended Engine | Client: Blue Moon, Belgium at Infosys (Jun’19 - Present)

Outline Blue Moon is proudly brewed at the Sandlot, at the RiNo Brewery, and at breweries throughout
the world. For more than 20 years, the Sandlot brewery provided our team of brewers an
opportunity to create and share new beers with fans around the world from Denver. Rather going
for a beer, blue moon proposed a package in which food item can be covered with beer for
customers at lower price and want to increase its sales by running a recommendation engine.
