What we set out to do
With a varied demographic of customer base, we had to be conscious of how the site came across from a creative and UX perspective. Hitting a sweet spot between contemporary and modern meant no customer group would be alienated.
Finding your perfect smoke is sometimes tricky, however, with our delivery of easy to use filters and “cigar finders” visitors are two clicks away from finding their perfect cigar.
By replacing the existing bespoke framework with a marketing leading solution Magento meant we would ensure the brand had flexibility, security and support in their critical path moving forward.
Stock transparency between the bricks and mortar stores and the website was also a key component of this project. Direct integration with Microsoft Nav Dynamics was planned from early on.

Showing the brand behind the products was a conscious decision from our design team. with over 200 years of trading it was seen as a unique selling point for new customers.
