# SA1NT relaunched in Europe on a bespoke Shopify store

> How we rebuilt SA1NT's European store on Shopify after Magento 1 for its distributor, with a custom theme made together with the brand's own designers.

- **Client:** SA1NT
- **Services:** Shopify migration, Magento migration, Bespoke theme and Ongoing development

## Results

- **10 weeks**: First conversation to launch

SA1NT's European distributor moved the brand's online store from Magento 1 to Shopify, and we built the new store. We designed a custom theme with SA1NT's own designers and took the store from first conversation to launch in 10 weeks. After launch we kept working with the distributor to develop the store.

## About SA1NT

SA1NT is an Australian brand that makes clothing for work and for motorcycle riders. Our client was the distributor responsible for Europe.

## The challenge

The European store ran on Magento 1 and was underperforming in the European market. The distributor decided to move to Shopify and chose Think Commerce to build the new store.

The brief was wider than a technical migration. The distributor wanted a store that needs little maintenance and could support its plans for the Nordics, the UK and the rest of Europe. We worked with the distributor and SA1NT's head office in Australia throughout.

## What we did

Moving to Shopify took much of the troubleshooting and maintenance off the distributor's team. The store is built to add new regions and a growing product range.

### A custom theme built with SA1NT's designers

Working with SA1NT's designers, we built a custom Shopify theme that matches the brand's rugged image and suits European shoppers.

### A clear layout that works on mobile

We kept the layout simple to navigate and optimised the store for mobile.

## After launch

We kept working with the distributor after launch. We developed SA1NT's presence in Europe and supported other brands in the distributor's portfolio, shipping improvements and new features regularly. That kind of ongoing work is what our [monthly retainers](https://thinkcommerce.com/retainers) cover.

## The result

It took 10 weeks from first conversation to launch.

## Moving off Magento?

If your store still runs on Magento, our [Magento to Shopify migration service](https://thinkcommerce.com/services/magento-to-shopify) covers data, SEO and redirects. The [GaitLine case study](https://thinkcommerce.com/case-studies/gaitline) shows a Magento 2 move to Shopify Plus.
