Beard & Blade

Beard & Blade is a wholesale business specializing in providing products for hair styling, beard care, and beauty and skincare for men. The brand is known for offering high-quality products tailored for men who aim to maintain their appearance and well-being.

Beard & Blade’s wholesale website was initially built and developed on the Magento eCommerce platform. However, according to the Beard & Blade team, operating the wholesale system on this platform proved to be challenging and required numerous manual tasks.

This resulted in time loss, and the overall cost for their wholesale system to operate on Magento was a considerable amount. Therefore, the brand decided to revamp its platform with Shopify Plus.

After considerable efforts, Beard & Blade’s Shopify Plus wholesale website for men’s products was officially launched.

By utilizing Shopify Plus’s dedicated solutions for wholesalers, Beard & Blade was able to automate inventory management, customize product pricing, and set discount levels based on the quantity of products ordered.

In contrast to the previous operational experience on Magento, wholesale orders on Shopify Plus are processed consistently, without interruptions, and without requiring manual tasks, thus avoiding disruptions to the customer experience.

Since the launch of the new website on Shopify Plus, Beard & Blade’s wholesale revenue has increased by 100%, and the average order value (AOV) for wholesale is five times higher than the retail AOV.

Leveraging the available solutions of Shopify Plus, Milligram built and customized advanced features, such as an enhanced search function, to provide an optimal shopping experience for customers.

Eden Park is a prestigious fashion brand originating from France, renowned for its high-end sportswear and fashion products. The brand specializes in providing premium sports and fashion items, with their collections often combining a blend of comfortable and luxurious styles.

In 2021, Eden Park turned its attention to Shopify when contemplating entry into the U.S. market. Moreover, at that time, Eden Park’s eCommerce website faced numerous operational issues.

Bastien Borget, the eCommerce Director of Eden Park, admitted that the business spent approximately 80% of its time operating the Magento website, yet the system consistently experienced errors, and the maintenance incurred substantial costs.

During Black Friday, the Magento website crashed due to overload from a sudden surge in traffic. At that point, Eden Park decided to revamp its platform with Shopify Plus, utilizing solutions within the Shopify ecosystem such as Shopify Payment and Shopify Flow.

Additionally, the superior integration capabilities of Shopify Plus allowed Eden Park to seamlessly integrate with third-party applications like Klaviyo, Gorgias, and Babak.

Jack Rogers

Jack Rogers is a renowned footwear and fashion accessories brand headquartered in New York, USA. The brand is known for producing stylish sandals with traditional designs and premium materials, making Jack Rogers an icon of aristocratic fashion.

For a prominent fashion brand like Jack Rogers, utilizing a website as a potential sales channel remains crucial. However, the Jack Rogers website operating on the Magento platform began experiencing errors after a certain period.

Tasks such as repairs, changes, system operations, or running marketing campaigns consumed a significant amount of time for the technical team, leading to higher costs for Jack Rogers.

Moreover, inventory management posed challenges, with overselling issues occurring, and inaccuracies in the system’s quantity calculations resulting in revenue loss and a suboptimal customer experience.

Therefore, the Jack Rogers team sought to simplify their system, implement automation processes, and reduce technical burdens to focus on more critical business tasks.

The migration from the Magento platform to Shopify Plus helped Jack Rogers address these challenges. The new Jack Rogers website leveraged Shopify Flow solutions to automate operational, marketing, and sales processes, saving considerable time and labor compared to the manual processes of the previous Magento website.
