Over the past 2 years, we have developed a great partnership with The Hope Factory. Their ongoing dedication and support have seen our sales volume increase tenfold over a very short period of time. We appreciate their attention to detail and creative approach in helping our company grow.

Shopify Plus is the world’s most scalable and robust online retail platform. It’s a multi-channel, global solution on a fully-hosted commerce platform built for high-volume businesses. At The Hope Factory, we are right across its ever-growing ecosystem of technology and partners so we’re equipped to help even the most ambitious businesses scale up.
Christmas, Black Friday, Boxing Day, Mother’s Day and any other shopping frenzy, Shopify Plus already handles the biggest sales events online with ease. With almost 11,000 peak orders every minute, selling out in seconds is second nature for Shopify Plus.
Shopify Plus can sell where your customers are. It is set up for international sales offering multiple currencies within one store, or multiple expansion stores for different regions. Plus, it delivers a seamless experience across all channels with native integrations for Amazon, eBay, Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, Pinterest and third-party custom integrations for Wanelo, Wish and more.
We can help your team focus on strategic growth and marketing by turning repetitive manual tasks into automated workflows. Take the stress out of seasonal sales with set-and-forget event scheduling, and add custom discounts, promotions and shipping rates to your checkout and more.
Without getting too technical, Shopify and Shopify Plus have in place the security best practices your customers demand and that you need for peace of mind. The platform is compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (Level 1 PCI DSS and SOC 2 Type II), features secure socket layer (SSL) encryption and much more.
As a Shopify Plus customer, you benefit from 24/7 support service. Plus, to help you grow faster, you’ll have access to additional exclusive strategic support where you’ll receive ongoing strategy and guidance from a merchant success manager from Shopify Plus to help you achieve your goals.
From branding, layout and navigation through to administration processes and a personalised checkout experience, Shopify Plus gives you the flexibility to customise every element of your store.
With powerful application programming interfaces (API) and software development kit (SDK), as well as a large app ecosystem, you can extend capabilities and integrate third-party systems seamlessly.
Attract a global audience by creating additional online stores to sell in different currencies and languages. Up to 9 expansion stores are included as part of the package.
With wholesale-specific pricing, automated account signups, buyer review controls, reorder management and more, you can easily set up a self-service wholesale business-to-business store.
Built-in augmented reality (AR), video and 3D media capabilities on product pages enable you to use all the latest media tools to make your online experience powerful and persuasive.
Running a busy online store, staff spend hours doing repetitive tasks and manual processes. Time which could be better spent looking after customers, selling or focusing on business growth. With Shopify Plus’ ecommerce automation tools, we can help you put marketing campaigns, promotions and common tasks on autopilot.
Managing big campaigns or flash sales like Black Friday can be stressful with all the last minute changes the night before. With Launchpad you can automate and pre-schedule discounts and theme changes, synchronise inventory across channels and revert your changes when the event ends.
Make every sale an upsell and increase your average order value with Shopify Scripts by offering automated advanced discounts, bundles, free gifts, payment and shipping options that are personalised to a cart based on the items in that cart as well as other cart properties.
Cut the time your team spends on repetitive tasks with Shopify Flow by automating standard workflows across all your stores including inventory management processes. The tool can also integrate across your productivity apps such as Slack, Asana, Trello and Google Sheets.
Powering 1.7 million small and medium ecommerce sites across 175 countries, Shopify is ideal for small and medium ecommerce business owners. Upgrading to Shopify Plus is perfect for businesses who are dealing with rapid growth, high sales volumes, multi-platform or international sales, complex processes and multiple wholesale relationships.
It can also be ideal for established traditional retailers moving online, businesses that are struggling to keep up with the latest ecommerce technology, and retailers who have outgrown other platforms.
With Shopify Plus, you’re in good company. Over 10,000 of the world’s most innovative brands choose Shopify Plus.

Our team at Footgear have had the pleasure of working with Bhumika over the last couple of months on quite a complex Web Store migration and new build, Magento to Shopify Plus. Bhumika has been outstanding, highly knowledgeable and always quick to respond to requests. She has kept our team on track with the project which has resulted in a fantastic end result for us. The Web Store is doing everything we could have wished for and more.
John Harrison, Footgear
It was fantastic working with The Hope Factory. From day 1 they went through our Magento 1 site and recognised all of our needs and requirements for the migration to Shopify Plus. We also use Retail Express integration, which can be tricky at times, but once more they helped solve issues and came up with solutions. We look forward to working with them in the future as we aim to keep improving the site moving forward. Highly recommend it.
Alexander Mason, Just Hockey
From the initial meeting, all the way to launch Rax was thorough, clear and did not miss a beat. The guys at the Hope Factory designed the site exactly the way we asked for. They went above and beyond to help have a smooth migration. We would like to thank Rax and the team at Hope Factory for their great job! Highly recommend it!
Dave Strangis, Bronze Snake
The Hope Factory has provided us with excellent service across our 2-3 year working relationship. Raksha and the team are always there to assist us with any queries we have or design work we need to be completed.
Jo Mercer
Before I started this project of moving to a new website, I was very worried and stressed about it all, but that all changed as soon as we commenced. The Team from The Hope Factory were unbelievable, reassuring and confident every step of the way. They were responsive and thorough with all aspects of the build and delivered an awesome website well ahead of schedule.
