E-commerce and Retail · Software development
E-commerce and Retail software, built by people who've done it before.
Custom storefronts, marketplaces, subscription commerce and the inventory, fulfilment and analytics systems behind them. Our e-commerce work is measured in conversion rate and page speed, so performance budgets and checkout testing are part of every sprint.
The realities of e-commerce and retail software.
- Checkout speed and reliability decide revenue; a slow product page is a lost sale
- Inventory, orders, shipping and returns have to stay consistent across channels
- Peak-day traffic is ten times normal and arrives without warning
- Search, recommendations and personalization need real data plumbing
Solutions we've delivered in this sector.
- Headless storefronts on Next.js
- Marketplace and multi-vendor platforms
- Inventory, order and fulfilment systems
- Search, recommendations and personalization
- Shopify and custom platform integrations
What we have built in e-commerce and retail
E-commerce work has ranged from a headless Next.js storefront on top of an existing Shopify catalogue, delivered in eight weeks by two engineers and a designer, to a multi-vendor marketplace with vendor onboarding, split payments and order management built over five months by a team of five. We have also built inventory and fulfilment tooling that keeps stock consistent across a web store, a mobile app and two physical locations, a three-engineer, twelve-week project with barcode scanning and supplier portals.
Compliance and integration checklist
- Payment integration with tokenisation so card data never touches your servers
- Performance budget: product pages under 2.5 seconds LCP on mobile, checkout under three steps
- Inventory sync across channels with conflict handling and low-stock alerts
- Shipping, tax and returns integrations (carriers, tax engines, RMA workflow)
- Search and recommendation pipelines with analytics events for every interaction
- GDPR and cookie consent handled correctly for EU customers
- Load testing to at least ten times normal traffic before peak season

E-commerce and Retail questions, answered.
Shopify or custom?
Shopify when the catalog and checkout are standard, custom or headless when you need a unique buying flow, complex pricing or a marketplace model. We build both.
Can you improve our Core Web Vitals?
Yes. Most storefronts we take over pass Core Web Vitals within one release after image, script and rendering fixes.
Do you build mobile commerce apps?
Yes, usually in Flutter or React Native, sharing the same backend as the web storefront.
