B2B Commercial Refrigeration
Shopify + QuickBooks Online
A US-based commercial refrigeration parts supplier was running a basic brochureware site with only a handful of products listed. We rebuilt it as a modern, responsive Shopify Commerce store carrying 750+ products - and integrated it with QuickBooks Online so orders, inventory and accounting stay in sync automatically.

🛒
Platform
Shopify Commerce storefront (750+ products) integrated with QuickBooks Online for synced orders, inventory and accounting.
🧩
Scope
Responsive redesign, full catalog structure, audience journeys, bulk-order enquiry flows, and a Shopify ↔ QuickBooks Online integration.
The Challenge
From Brochureware to Real Commerce
The supplier's previous website was essentially brochureware - a static online presence with only a handful of products shown as a simple catalogue, and no real way to buy.
It didn't reflect the depth of their actual inventory, wasn't built for modern devices, and gave professional buyers no way to browse the full range or order online. The brief was to modernise the site and turn it into a genuine, transactional store that could carry their entire catalogue.
What We Built
A Catalog Store Built for Trade
✦
Full Shopify storefront
A complete store with a large, browsable parts catalog, customer accounts, cart and checkout configured end to end.
✦
Category & brand navigation
Browse by part category and by manufacturer brand, so professional buyers can find the exact component quickly.
✦
Audience-specific journeys
Dedicated sections for grocery & convenience, walk-in freezer manufacturers, OEM case manufacturers and mechanical contractors.
✦
Bulk-order & OEM enquiries
Clear paths for volume pricing and OEM supply-chain enquiries, making it easy for trade customers to get in touch.
✦
Shopify + QuickBooks Online integration
A two-way integration syncing orders, products, inventory and customers between Shopify and QuickBooks Online - removing manual data entry and keeping the books accurate in real time.
✦
Commerce essentials
Payments, shipping and core store configuration set up for a real-world catalog operation.
The Result
A Modern Store with 750+ Products
We delivered a modernised, fully responsive website with Shopify Commerce at its core - now carrying 750+ products online, organised by category and brand, with clear bulk-order and OEM enquiry paths for trade buyers.
What was once a static brochure is now a working storefront that reflects the full depth of the supplier's inventory and lets customers browse and buy across any device - while the QuickBooks Online integration keeps sales, stock and accounting reconciled without manual re-keying.
“We are so delighted to have our website modernised and ecommerce integrated, creating a platform to scale up and provide our customers a next-gen customer experience.”
