Hell Bunny Clothing
Overview
After building a custom B2B storefront for their successful wholesale business, there was a huge opportunity to take the brand directly to consumers, launching Hell Bunny’s retail presence with a D2C site. Hell Bunny were confident that with our unique retail experience, we could use our expertise to grow their D2C brand, managing all aspects of the retail operation aside from the physical picking and packing of customer orders. Our all-in Growth solution enables the client to focus on their wholesale business whilst we continue to successfully manage their retail brand. Over the last 5 years, Hell Bunny has seen consistent YoY growth and are currently tracking a 100% increase in revenue with targets set on an 8-figure turnover.
Build: Magento 1 to Adobe Commerce Migration
With support for Magento 1 ending, we migrated Hell Bunny’s Magento 1 store to Adobe Commerce. Adobe Commerce is designed for impressive scalability, offering powerful out-of-the box functionality and a seamless, omnichannel customer experience. With consistent YoY revenue growth, there was no question that Hell Bunny needed an upgrade to a world-class ecommerce system, a platform with the ability to grow with the brand. The Adobe Commerce backend is more user-friendly with time-saving features such as Page Builder, Visual Merchandiser, Smart Categories and Content Scheduler that can be utilised by non-technical teams. With the majority of traffic coming from mobile, Hell Bunny also needed a mobile-friendly interface. The redeveloped platform improves the functionality and performance of storefronts on mobile devices. With plenty of experience seamlessly upgrading Magento stores, Jellywall were able to smoothly migrate Hell Bunny’s Magento 1 store to Adobe Commerce with no storefront downtime.
Along with the technical migration, the Hell Bunny site needed a complete redesign. The look and feel of the site had become dated and was no longer reflective of the brand’s story. Over the last few years as a result of our Digital Marketing efforts to reach new audiences, the Hell Bunny audience has shifted to include a larger proportion of young people so a clean, simple and modern design was introduced to cater to all Hell Bunny customers. New fonts, button styles and a total revamp of the layout helped bring the site up to date visually as well as contributing to the enhancement of the customer experience.
We also took the opportunity to work on the overall usability of the site, various rounds of design, prototyping and testing resulted in a seamless user experience that focused on all aspects of the customer journey. We completely reworked the mobile navigation so that it is now an effortless process for the user to find exactly what they are looking for on the site. We also introduced a completely custom account area and checkout flow that provides a personalised experience for the customer. This approach increases customer retention and maximises customer lifetime value.
