Challenge
A fashion retailer ran 3 country-specific stores on outdated PrestaShop 1.6 with custom hacks layered on the core. Page loads averaged 4.2s, EU payment gateways failed checkouts intermittently, and any module update broke production.
Solution
Rebuilt the storefront on PrestaShop 8 with a clean module architecture, migrated 80k products + history without downtime via blue-green deployment, integrated Stripe + Klarna + local EU payment providers, and tuned MySQL + Redis cache for sub-second TTFB.
Technology stack
Result
Conversion jumped +38% within 60 days, average checkout time fell from 92s to 31s, and the new modular setup lets the in-house team ship promo campaigns without engineering involvement.

Best PrestaShop developer we've worked with. Took ownership of complex migrations and kept the store live the whole time.
