Shopify Plus


Tropeaka is an Australian nutrition brand, born on Shopify back in 2016, such a long, long time ago.  Four years later, volumes have increased, B2B has become a priority and it was time to scale.  This meant a transition from Shopify to Shopify Plus and what a transition it was, with the addition of personalised discounts, cart optimisations and a custom check out.  Tropeaka were able to increase their average order value from $89 to $94 across 15,000 orders per month.  That is a sign of a very healthy partnership.  To read more of Tropeaka’s story and see other case studies, visit the customer section on shopify.com.au/plus.
