Project challenge

Customer kucerave.sk came with a clear vision: to modernize the outdated PrestaShop 1.7 online store, which no longer met the requirements of modern online shopping and limited business growth.

Online store suffered from several critical problems: slow page loading discouraged customers, the outdated design did not meet current e-commerce standards there was no support for international expansion, and the technical infrastructure required a complete overhaul.

We needed a solution that would not only solve current problems, but also create a solid foundation for future growth and expansion into the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Romania.
