What we build on Shopify Plus
Fast headless storefronts
We build headless Shopify Plus stores with Sanity for content management when that architecture fits your needs. We’ve delivered headless storefronts for TileCloud (5 brands), Kastel (multi-market), Goldsource (precious metals), and KHOLA (custom configurator).
The storefronts we build are fast. We measure the speed real customers experience and fix what slows them down. We test changes to pages and features to learn what helps people buy.
Multi-brand commerce on a shared platform
When you operate several brands, each improvement shouldn’t need building five times. We share the parts that should work the same way while keeping each brand’s own design and features.
TileCloud case: We manage development across five storefronts, including TileCloud, Yabby, Dawn Lighting and Verandah Trade, on one platform. Shared improvements reach several stores without rebuilding for each one. The team edits products in Sanity and chooses which stores receive them. TileCloud’s conversion rate increased 18% in the first 90 days. Yabby’s conversion rate increased 41% in year one.
B2B and wholesale portals
We build B2B solutions on Shopify Plus that connect multiple stores and let wholesale customers self-serve.
Abate case: Wholesale customers order across four Shopify stores and warehouses in one B2B portal. They prepare their own orders, choose the store and warehouse, and work through products. The portal splits orders by availability. B2B AOV increased 33% and sales increased 58% in the first year after migration.
Tools that make running the store easier
We build operational tools around the work your team repeats: B2B quoting, campaign preview, sell-your-coin intake, live pricing that follows market rates, and store locators.
Goldsource case: Product prices update as metals-market rates change. Customers see historical price charts. The team manages customer selling inquiries (offer and fulfillment) in Sanity. Sales increased 102% and orders increased 167% in the first year.

Integrations and automation
We connect Shopify Plus with the systems your team already uses. Less copying, checking, and piecing things together by hand.
What we connect: ERP, OMS, PIM, CRM, fulfillment platforms, payment systems, and custom middleware. Changes in Shopify reach the right system with retry handling so temporary failures don’t require manual intervention.
Measurement and experimentation
Performance measurement and A/B testing are standard. We measure Core Web Vitals from real customers, track what affects speed, and run experiments to compare results.
Kastel case: We track page-load performance experienced by actual visitors. We tested different ways to present product recommendations, bundles, and shipping thresholds after launch to improve the buying experience.
Our Shopify Plus approach
Headless when it fits, native when it doesn’t
We recommend headless Shopify Plus with Sanity when your content operations, multi-brand structure, or custom product experiences justify the added complexity. When they don’t, we build on Shopify’s native storefront capabilities.
The decision needs evidence: catalog shape, content operations, team workflows, and how you plan to maintain the store. We work through that evaluation with you and document the reasoning.
Sanity as your content operating system
Most of our Shopify Plus projects use Sanity for structured content management. One Studio edit updates across the stores that need it. Shared FAQs, opening hours, and product information are maintained once and appear everywhere they belong.
Campaign preview lets your team see scheduled content on a future date before it goes live. Product information management keeps colors, models, and descriptions centralized while each store keeps its own records.
Ongoing improvement, not just project delivery
We look after what we build and continue improving it with you. You work directly with the people who know your store, your systems, and what you’re trying to do.
After launch, we measure how changes work for your customers and team. We agree the next improvements with you without starting from scratch with a new partner.
Norwegian team, 24/7 agent support
Skai is a small Norwegian team backed by agents that work around the clock. The agents investigate problems, run tests, and build improvements while you sleep. You work with the same people who built your store.

Frequently asked questions
What makes a Shopify Plus build worth the investment?
Shopify Plus is worth considering when you need custom checkout, B2B functionality, multi-store management, or operational tools that standard Shopify can’t support. It typically makes sense above $1M annual revenue or when you operate multiple brands.
We evaluate your catalog, business models, team workflows, and systems during discovery. We document whether Shopify Plus fits and why.
Do you only build headless storefronts?
No. We recommend headless when your content operations, multi-brand structure, or product experiences justify it. When they don’t, we build on Shopify’s native capabilities. The architecture decision depends on evidence, not preference.
What’s included in a Shopify Plus build?
The scope depends on what you need. A typical engagement includes storefront development, Sanity setup for content management, integrations with your systems, performance measurement, and launch support. We document the scope and what success looks like before starting.
After launch, we monitor performance, handle issues, and continue improving with you.
How long does a Shopify Plus build take?
Full storefront builds typically take 12 weeks, followed by 4 weeks of close monitoring. Multi-store platforms, B2B portals, and complex integrations affect the timeline. We agree the scope and timeline with you during discovery.
Can you migrate our existing store to Shopify Plus?
Yes. We handle migrations from other platforms with product data, customer records, order history, URL redirects, and system integrations. We plan the migration to keep your store live and preserve search rankings.
We’ve migrated stores from various platforms. The migration scope depends on your current platform, data volume, and integrations.
Do you work with our existing team?
Yes. We can take on part of the work alongside your team or handle the full build. We discuss who’s involved and who handles what during the first call.
What happens after the first project?
We look after what we’ve built and continue improving it with you. We agree the priorities, scope and commercial terms together, so you know what the ongoing work includes.
How much does Shopify Plus development cost?
The cost depends on the scope: storefront complexity, number of brands, B2B requirements, integrations, and operational tools. We discuss what you need, compare options, and agree the work and cost before starting.
Shopify Plus licensing starts around $2,300/month, billed by Shopify. Development cost is separate and depends on your scope.
Who owns the code and store?
You own the store and code we build for you. You can keep working with us, hire your own developers, or choose another partner. Software from other companies has its own terms.
What systems do you integrate with Shopify Plus?
We connect Shopify Plus with ERP, OMS, PIM, CRM, WMS, fulfillment platforms, payment systems, and custom middleware. We’ve integrated with various systems across our projects. The integration scope depends on your systems and requirements.
What would you like to build?
Book a 30-minute discovery call. Bring a brief, a problem, or an idea. We’ll discuss what you need and whether we’re the right team to help.
