Task
Development of a valuable product website, with multistoring capability, multiple user roles per website and high performance.
Solgar’s high requirements combined with strict guidelines were the guiding principle for the project development team. The first challenge was strictly related to the aesthetic result, which should not deviate in the slightest from the parent company’s guidelines. Functionality was an equally important parameter, as the brand image had to be reflected in the same and uniform way in all countries. The second challenge was related to the performance of the page, as the loading speed had to be extremely fast, offering a beautiful browsing experience to the user. Finally, the look and feel had to be strictly the same for both Bulgarian and Romanian countries, offering a uniform management interface through the platform.
The choice of Magento 2 was a one-way street for the development of a remarkable product website, with multistoring, multiple user roles per website and high performance. A custom theme for Magento 2 was chosen to be developed, which would be 100% compliant with the parent company’s guidelines in both desktop and mobile environments. Our skilled staff was tasked to ensure that the final result would be fully aligned with the brand guidelines and Magento’s best practices. In terms of performance, the proven solutions combining Nginx/Varnish/Redis in a hosting environment with conditions perfectly adapted to Magento were followed. Finally, the excellent way in which Magento manages multistoring gave comparative advantages in the development of the individual websites for Bulgaria and Romania.
We developed a multi-store environment for efficient and centralized management through the Magento platform. We defined multiple user roles with different levels of access to each individual store (GR / BG / RO). In this way we provided a single environment with the main goal of efficient management of the product catalogue and further scalability of the project.
