Certified Shopify PartnerTop Rated on Upwork · 100% Job Success

You dream.
We do the tech.

I'm Bernard Emmanuel. I build and fix Shopify stores for brands that need more than a theme: B2B wholesale, ERP integrations, custom features and automations that save your team hours every week.

Under the hood

The hard parts of Shopify are my favorite parts

Most stores hit a wall when the business outgrows the theme. That is where I come in, with custom code that stays maintainable after launch.

B2B & wholesaleStore gating, tiered pricing, account approval flows, net terms and payment reminders.
ERP integrationsOrders, stock and customers kept in sync between Shopify and systems like Sage 300.
Returns & exchangesNative Shopify Plus return flows with photo uploads, built on Flow and Cloudflare Workers.
Quotes & file uploadsRequest-a-quote forms and secure pre-checkout file uploads for custom orders.
Theme developmentCustom sections, metafield-driven filters and fixes on themes like Honey and Eurus.
MigrationsMoving catalogs, customers and orders to Shopify from WooCommerce and other platforms.

  • Tiered wholesale pricing shown per customer account
  • Retailer application flow built into the store, from access request to approval
