Overview & Challenge

In this case study, we will explore the process of designing and developing an e-commerce store for a coffee shop. The goal of the project was to create an e-commerce store that would allow customers to purchase coffee beans, equipment, and accessories from the comfort of their own homes in 6 different countries.

The client is a local coffee shop that sources high-quality beans from around the world. They wanted to expand their reach beyond their physical location and offer their products to a wider audience.

The client's previous website needed to be updated and optimized for e-commerce. They struggled to manage their online store and process orders. They needed a modern e-commerce website that showcased their products and made it easy for customers to browse, purchase, and gift their products.
