Review the work
FIG. 01 — CATALOG TREE

What we build on BigCommerce.

SpecificationDeliverableAcceptance
Stencil themesCustom themes and theme customisation with clean Handlebars, components and responsive templates.Theme-editor ready
Headless storefrontsCatalyst or custom Next.js storefronts on the GraphQL Storefront API, with checkout kept native.Performance budgets
Catalogue & channelsProduct modelling, price lists, customer groups and multi-storefront channel setup.Data validated
B2B & integrationsB2B Edition, ERP, PIM and marketplace connections through REST and GraphQL APIs.End-to-end testing

A clean catalogue model is the foundation. Variants, options, modifiers and price lists are designed before storefront work starts.

FIG. 02 — INTEGRATION MAP

When BigCommerce is the right call.

BigCommerce suits catalogues with many variants, B2B price lists and businesses that want several storefronts or a headless front end without running their own commerce backend.

If another platform fits better, we will say so. We also build on Shopify and WooCommerce, and handle migrations in any direction.

A few things, clarified.

Stencil or headless?

Stencil is faster to build and easier for teams to manage. Headless makes sense when you need a custom front end, content-heavy experiences or several storefronts sharing one backend.

Can you migrate us to BigCommerce?

Yes. We plan product, customer and order data, URL redirects and integrations together, with a rehearsal migration before launch.

Do you work with BigCommerce B2B Edition?

Yes. Company accounts, quotes, price lists and buyer portals, configured around how your wholesale customers actually order.

Can you improve our existing BigCommerce store?

Yes. We start with a theme and performance audit, then prioritise fixes and improvements.

§09 / NEXT COMMIT

Send us
the brief.

A new store. A difficult migration. The thing your current stack can’t do.
Let’s make a plan.
