Fertile Fibre
Ecommerce Development | SEO
Organic compost retailer Fertile Fibre had a Magento 1 website that was rapidly approaching end of life, and the team were looking for a platform that would make a good fit for the next phase of their ecommerce business.
After carrying out a review of the client’s business, rather than recommending making the move to Magento 2, we recommended the Shopify platform as the most suitable tech stack for taking their business to its next level of growth.
Shopify’s ultra-optimised checkout process, user-friendly content management system (CMS), reduced PCI compliance and lower operating costs as an ecommerce platform made it a natural fit for the next chapter in Fertile Fibre’s story.
With the platform nailed down, we commenced a smooth and successful migration from Magento 1 to Shopify, migrating all existing site content, reflecting updated brand imagery across the new website and providing bundling and bulk-buy options for products in line with the client’s specifications.
Data migration is often one of the most painful aspects of a platform migration and should be clearly mapped out at the beginning of a project to prevent issues from emerging closer to launch. Planning is key to any successful data migration.
Throughout this build, we maintained a firm focus on user experience and engagement - two primary criteria for a profitable ecommerce store.
Here are just some of the ways that user experience and engagement came to the fore in this web migration project:
This new Shopify website has afforded Fertile Fibre an enhanced online presence, providing the organic compost retailer with the tools to grow the business online and drive additional sales across its eco-friendly product range.
Shopify provides the perfect platform for Fertile Fibre to grow its business and explore international expansion without any limiting technical boundaries. Plus, with a huge marketplace of apps and plugins available for Shopify stores, as well as inclusive site hosting, this one-stop online shop will serve Fertile Fibre and its loyal customers for years to come.
Since the launch of this new and improved ecommerce store, Fertile Fibre is now continuing its journey with Land with an integrated digital marketing strategy - and we can’t wait to turn these organic compost products into an organic search success story.
