This review article explores a recent and successful website migration project involving Hollins & Hollinshead, a well established jewellery brand, and their transition from the Visualsoft retail platform to Shopify.

This project was not just about moving data; it encompassed a complete transformation, including setting up a Shopify store, migrating thousands of products, implementing a new theme, and providing comprehensive training.

Website Migration

Project Overview

Hollins & Hollinshead, a long-established jewellery retailer, recognised the need to adapt to changing e-commerce trends and enhance its online shopping experience. The decision to migrate from Visualsoft to Shopify was a strategic move aimed at achieving greater flexibility, scalability, and a modern user-interface.

Shopify Store Setup: The project began with the creation of a new Shopify store tailored to Hollins & Hollinshead's specific needs. This involved configuring settings, integrating necessary apps, and ensuring a smooth transition from the previous platform.

Shopify Theme Customisation

Product Migration: One of the most crucial aspects of the migration was the transfer of over 3000 products from the old platform to Shopify. This was a meticulous process to ensure that product data, descriptions, images, and pricing remained intact.

Shopify Theme Implementation: To give the online store a fresh and contemporary look, a new Shopify theme was selected and customised to align with Hollins & Hollinshead's brand identity. This theme not only improved aesthetics but also enhanced user experience and mobile responsiveness.

Training and Support: Recognising that adapting to a new platform can be daunting, the project included comprehensive video support and training for Hollins & Hollinshead's team members. This helped them seamlessly transition to Shopify and effectively manage their new website.

They lauded the project team for their expertise, dedication, and commitment to ensuring a smooth transition. The client particularly appreciated the following aspects:

  • Minimal Downtime

    The new Shopify theme and layout significantly improved the user experience. Customers found the website more intuitive, visually appealing, and easy to navigate.

  • Empowerment Through Training
