Client Overview
Vintage Bottles Ltd is a specialty retailer focusing on curated vintage and collectible
bottles. The client aimed to revamp their online store to provide a modern, user-friendly
shopping experience while maintaining their rich brand identity. Their goals included
improving website functionality, creating visually appealing product pages, and ensuring
a seamless transition from their existing site.
Business Challenge
The client faced several challenges that necessitated a headless
Shopify solution:

navigation. - Inefficient Product Pages: Product pages did not align with current branding or user
experience expectations. - Data Migration: Seamlessly transferring historical data, including customer
information, orders, and blogs, was critical. - Customization Needs: The client required tailored product pages using a specified
template for better engagement. - Limited Scalability: The site architecture hindered smooth integration of new features
or scaling efforts.
