Problem
While offering a delightful product range, ScandyCandy struggled with an outdated digital experience that fell short of modern eCommerce standards. The site lacked personalized features, intuitive navigation, and engaging UI/UX, all of which are essential for driving conversions and customer satisfaction. ScandyCandy had no efficient way to offer custom bundles, subscriptions, or manage wholesale orders, limiting both user experience and operational scalability. The backend was also fragmented, making content, order, and customer data management cumbersome. The challenge was to integrate robust eCommerce functionality while preserving ScandyCandy’s fun, vibrant brand identity across both retail and wholesale experiences.
