The challenge

Frontrunners Nanaimo is a local running store selling shoes, apparel, and accessories. They approached Midstride to build an e-commerce site so they could reach and serve customers beyond their storefront.

The solution

After evaluating their existing POS and inventory systems, Midstride recommended Shopify as the platform. The team worked with Frontrunners to select an off-the-shelf theme that met most needs while keeping costs down, then customized it to match their brand.

Midstride also helped define a process for connecting inventory to reduce manual work, and built customizations for product variations and related-product discovery.
