E-commerce Development Services
Storefronts, marketplaces and commerce systems built to convert
We build commerce experiences where speed and checkout friction are treated as revenue problems, because that is what they are. Headless storefronts, multi-vendor marketplaces and the unglamorous integration work - inventory, orders, ERP - that keeps an operation running.
- Headless storefronts with sub-second page loads
- Checkout optimisation and multiple payment methods
- Catalogue, inventory and order management
- Multi-vendor marketplace architecture
- AI-driven search, merchandising and recommendations
- Higher conversion from faster pages and shorter checkout
- Product pages structured to rank and to earn rich results
- Stock and order data consistent across every channel
- Confidence that peak-season traffic will not break the store
- Headless commerce
- B2B ordering portals
- Multi-vendor marketplaces
- Subscription commerce
Common questions
Should we build custom or use Shopify?
Shopify, for the large majority of stores, and we will say so even though it is the smaller engagement. It handles payments, tax, fraud and PCI scope, and building those yourself is a serious undertaking with severe downside. Custom earns its place when the business model does not fit a standard catalogue - complex configuration, B2B pricing tiers, marketplace mechanics - or when you are integrating a platform into a larger system.
Have you built commerce platforms before?
Being straight with you: we have not yet delivered a project for a pure retail ecommerce client. What we have delivered is the engineering that commerce depends on - subscription billing, payment integration, catalogue and search work, and high-traffic application architecture. If you want a partner with a shelf of retail case studies, that is a fair requirement and we are not that partner today.
How do you handle traffic spikes on launch or sale days?
By testing before the day rather than hoping. That means load testing against realistic traffic shapes, caching aggressively at the edge, and knowing which component fails first - it is almost always the database, and almost always a query nobody profiled. Autoscaling helps and does not save a design that serialises on one bottleneck.
Can you integrate our ERP, warehouse or fulfilment systems?
Yes, and this is where most commerce projects actually spend their budget. Inventory that disagrees between the store and the warehouse causes oversells, and reconciling them is more subtle than it looks because both systems are moving. We map the integration surface and the failure modes before quoting, since a system with no API changes the cost significantly.
