The Challenge
The client's existing WooCommerce store was struggling with performance issues, especially during peak traffic periods. Page load times exceeded 5 seconds, cart abandonment was high, and the site couldn't handle traffic spikes during sales events.
Our Solution
We architected and built a headless e-commerce solution using Shopify as the backend with a custom Next.js storefront. This included migrating all products, customer data, and order history while implementing a CDN-first approach for static assets.
