The project involved a full-scale migration from Magento to Shopify, with a primary focus on re-architecting the product catalog for improved structure and usability. The original Magento store contained over 800 simple products, each listed individually without variant logic—resulting in a fragmented and inefficient user experience.

A key challenge was consolidating these individual listings into 144 well-structured variant products on Shopify, each with logically grouped options and attributes. This required meticulous data mapping and transformation to ensure accuracy and consistency across the catalog. The migration process heavily relied on structured CSV files for importing and organizing product data—covering everything from titles, SKUs, and options to inventory levels and pricing.

In addition to restructuring the catalog, each variant was assigned a dedicated image gallery, implemented through careful CSV-based media mapping to support dynamic image switching and provide a more immersive product experience. Managing and aligning hundreds of image assets through CSVs ensured consistency and efficiency during the bulk upload process.

The migration also involved preserving SEO integrity, organizing media assets, and optimizing the product setup for streamlined management within Shopify’s ecosystem.

The result is a significantly improved storefront—both in performance and user experience—with scalable product architecture, intuitive navigation, and enhanced visual consistency.

Migrating a store from Magento to Shopify involves a structured approach to ensure a seamless transition and improved storefront performance. The process began with a thorough audit of the existing product catalog, which consisted of over 800 simple products. Planning involved preparing CSV templates, identifying product groupings for variants, and organizing media files for bulk image uploads.

Once the groundwork was laid, data was imported into Shopify using custom CSVs that defined product titles, options, SKUs, pricing, and inventory. Simple products were transformed into 144 well-structured variant products, each with properly grouped attributes. In parallel, variant-specific image galleries were implemented using Shopify’s media mapping format, enabling dynamic image switching based on selected options.

After migration, the site was optimized for SEO, mobile responsiveness, and loading speed. Structured navigation and improved product pages enhanced the overall user experience. Final steps included testing across devices and browsers, launching the site, and setting up analytics and performance monitoring. Ongoing maintenance ensures product accuracy, performance tracking, and smooth scaling as the store grows.
