Case Study: Striiipes launches an online store in 48 hours and ships worldwide with WooCommerce

How Arthur Set up Striiiipes.com in 48 Hours with WooCommerce

Striiipes.com is the online shop of Parisian designer Arthur Lhermitte, who needed an affordable, flexible storefront to sell workshop-made accessories without a brick-and-mortar shop. After launching with simple PayPal links he ran into problems — no cart, awkward shipping handling, and a non-ideal checkout — and wanted a responsive redesign to better showcase product photography across devices.

Arthur rebuilt the site on WordPress using the free WooCommerce plugin and had a functioning shop in under 48 hours. He added extensions (Bundle Rate Shipping Module for shipping rules, Product Tabs for bilingual descriptions), uses PayPal and La Poste for fulfillment, and often offers free worldwide shipping. The result: a streamlined checkout, richer product pages and landing pages, easier product launches, and growing international sales (notably the Lunch Bag, iPad accessories and a popular leather cardholder).
