The Challenge

Velo Apparel's legacy Shopify page-builder storefront suffered slow load times (5.2s average), directly contributing to high cart abandonment on mobile devices.

The Solution

We migrated the storefront to a React static-generation architecture, decoupling the frontend from Shopify's theme layer while retaining Shopify's backend via API, and optimized Core Web Vitals across every template.

The Outcomes

  • Speed Optimization: Load times dropped from 5.2s to 420ms (92% reduction)
  • Lower Dropoffs: Cart checkout drop-off rate decreased by 18%
  • Premium Rankings: Mobile PageSpeed score improved into the 90+ range
