WooCommerce stores merged into one Shopify Plus store for Simucube

We moved Simucube's EU, UK and US WooCommerce stores into one Shopify Plus store with three Markets. We also developed a custom product configurator app with Shopify Functions.

"This has been the most impressive vendor partnership I have experienced. Every meeting felt purposeful, every milestone was clear, and the process was incredibly well-supported from start to finish."

What you get from a Shero Shopify developer

You get Shopify developers who handle theme development in Liquid, custom apps, checkout work with Shopify Functions and Checkout Extensibility, B2B setup and data migration. They also connect your ERP and 3PL to Shopify, and can work on your existing store or set up a new one for you. We create theme sections your team can edit in the theme editor, so you can change text, images and layouts without calling a developer.

01

Development, SEO and marketing in one company

After launch, we can also handle your Shopify SEO, CRO, paid ads and email. That way you work with one company for both development and marketing.

02

You talk to the people doing the work

You talk directly to the developers, designers and strategists working on your store, on calls and in a shared Slack channel. Your account manager keeps conversations moving and speaks up for you, and is not billed to you.

03

Changes agreed in writing before work starts

If you want something new after sign-off, we write it up as a change request and you approve it before we start. The scope you approve comes from discovery.

04

Stores made for AI search

We add structured product data and JSON-LD schema for products and reviews into the theme so search engines and AI assistants can read your catalog.

05

Changes made on a development theme first

Our developers create and test each change on an unpublished development theme, with the code kept in Git. You can open the same theme and check the change yourself before it is published to your live store.

06

Native Shopify first, custom code last

We use native Shopify features first, apps second and custom code last. When nothing in the Shopify App Store does the job, our developers write a custom app, like the Blink delivery app we made for Alto Music.

Baby Sleep Courses

Taking Cara Babies

Leadership Education

CCL - Center for Creative Leadership

Shero moved the Center for Creative Leadership, a global nonprofit, from iApps to Magento 2. We integrated Microsoft Dynamics 365 and VitalSource, set up international selling, and improved the store and checkout on every device.

Industrial Safety Solutions

Justrite

JustRite Safety Group is a leading manufacturer of workplace safety products with roots going back to 1906. The brand partnered with Shero to merge four separate Magento stores into a single multi-store megasite, allowing customers to shop across all brands with one shared cart. Organic traffic doubled almost immediately after launch and continued to grow steadily over the following six months.

Candy and Party Favors

Just Candy

Just Candy sells personalized candy and party favors from a catalog of more than 16,000 SKUs. On VTEX, the brand had a rigid and expensive tech stack, a dip in sales caused by user experience issues, and site management that depended on heavy custom development. Shero moved the full catalog to Shopify and kept personalization and performance intact. Indexed pages increased 66% after the migration.
