Citimarine Store
Citimarine Store is a bilingual English and Spanish online shop for specialist marine equipment. We migrated it from PrestaShop 1.6 to PrestaShop 8.0, built its PrestaShop 8 storefront, theme and 39 custom modules, and run the whole stack: development, deployment, databases, search, image delivery and monitoring on containerized, multi-region infrastructure.
What is Citimarine Store?
Citimarine Store is a specialist online retailer of marine equipment: electronics, air-conditioning, generators, refrigeration, anchoring and docking gear, thrusters and more. It serves customers in English and Spanish.
We migrated the store from PrestaShop 1.6 to PrestaShop 8.0.
We have developed and operated its PrestaShop store end to end for more than three and a half years: the storefront and theme, the custom features that run the business day to day, and the infrastructure underneath.
What made this store demanding to run?
A large catalog of specialist products has to stay easy to search and fast to load, in two languages.
Orders pass through many payment, shipping and vendor integrations, and the store has to stay online while payments and vendor imports run.
What did we build to meet that?
- A migration from PrestaShop 1.6 to PrestaShop 8.0The store moved to PrestaShop 8.0, and we built its storefront, theme and custom modules on that release.
- A bespoke theme and 39 custom modulesFrom a 3D product viewer and a loyalty program to abandoned-cart recovery, vendor import and stock sync, a mega-menu and a promotions engine.
- Meilisearch for product searchFast, faceted search across the whole catalog.
- A custom image pipelineIt generates and delivers modern formats (WebP/AVIF) on demand.
- Payment and shipping integrationsBraintree, Affirm, Amazon Pay, FedEx and more.
- Containerized, multi-region infrastructureWith its own monitoring, plus around two dozen scheduled jobs that keep the catalog, feeds and recovery flows in sync.
