The problem

A national store, selling across South Africa and exporting, had reached the end of what its WooCommerce build could carry. The catalogue, the customer history and the search rankings all had to survive the move. That is the part that keeps most owners on a platform that is already failing them.

What we did

We moved the store to PrestaShop and redesigned the storefront in the same programme. Products, variants, customers and order history came across. Old URLs were mapped and redirected, so the rankings held. The whole thing ran on staging until it was proven, and only then did anyone cut over.
