A Shopify Case Study
Planeta Huerto, a major online retailer of organic food and home products, faced significant challenges with its custom-built ecommerce platform. The legacy system, which ran both its storefront and back office, required a dedicated team of 25 engineers to maintain and struggled to handle the complexity of its 485,000-item catalogue, which included a marketplace integration. This high-maintenance technology was slowing down business growth for the company.
Shopify, implemented with the help of partner Nitsnets, provided the solution through a carefully managed, phased migration. The new platform stabilized Planeta Huerto's operations, eliminating recurring bugs and cutting €16,000 in monthly infrastructure costs. As a result, the company grew its revenue by 30% year-on-year, achieved its highest conversion rate, and was able to reallocate its technical resources toward business growth and customer engagement.
