Shopify modernization for an e-commerce retailer carrying 300+ premium brands

2Modern, one of the longest-running independent e-commerce retailers featured in The New York Times and ELLE Decor, partnered with AgileEngine to modernize its Shopify storefront. The client’s internal team lacked the bandwidth to accelerate front-end improvements, pay down technical debt, and keep the codebase maintainable as the business evolved. Our remote team accelerated all three of these workflows.
