Project Overview
ShopMax needed a complete e-commerce transformation. Their existing platform was outdated, slow, and couldn't handle growing traffic. We built a modern, high-performance e-commerce platform from the ground up that increased their online sales by 200% within the first 6 months.
The platform features real-time inventory management, AI-powered product recommendations, seamless checkout with multiple payment gateways, and a powerful admin dashboard for managing orders, customers, and analytics.
We also implemented advanced SEO strategies, progressive web app (PWA) capabilities, and integrated with their existing warehouse management system for a unified workflow.
The Challenge
- Legacy platform with 8+ second load times
- Cart abandonment rate over 75%
- No mobile optimization
- Poor search & filtering system
- Manual inventory management
Our Solution
- Sub-2 second load with Next.js SSR
- Streamlined checkout flow (3 steps)
- Mobile-first responsive design
- AI-powered search with Algolia
- Real-time inventory sync via API
