LATIMEX MARKETHow a Full Shopify Build Helped Latimex Market Grow Orders by 18% in 30 Days
When they approached us, the brand already had a strong identity and a good product range. But the store setup was incomplete. The theme was not configured properly, the homepage needed a cleaner and more professional structure, and hundreds of products still had to be uploaded and organized. On top of that, important apps were missing, automation workflows were not set up and the store had almost no SEO optimization.
The main goal was simple- build a Shopify store that not only looked good but also worked smoothly, stayed organized, and was ready to grow long-term.
Project Goals
At the beginning of the project, we focused on the following objectives-






The focus was not only on launching the store properly but also on making sure the business could scale without operational issues later.
Challenges
The Brand Was Facing
Before the project started, Latimex Market already had a strong product range and a clear niche audience. However the store still had several operational and setup-related challenges that were slowing down growth.
Incomplete Shopify Store Setup
Homepage Did Not Reflect the Brand Properly
Large Number of Products Still Needed Uploading
No Automation for Daily Operations
Important Apps Were Missing
Limited SEO Optimization
Need for a Scalable Store Structure

Our Approach
We handled this project as a complete Shopify store build instead of treating each task separately.
Our team of experts fixed the store foundation by setting up the theme and core store settings properly. After that, we moved into homepage design, product uploads, automation setup, app configuration and SEO optimization.
This step-by-step process helped keep the store organized and made sure every part of the setup worked smoothly together.

1. Theme Setup
We started by installing and properly configuring the Foodie – Slice theme to create a stable base for the store.
Work Included:
Configured payment settings, shipping zones, taxes and checkout
Created navigation menus and footer links
Organized collections, filters and product sorting
Structured the store layout for easy browsing
Made sure the theme was stable before moving into customization
Getting the setup right at this stage made the rest of the project much smoother.
2. Custom Homepage Design
The homepage plays a big role in how customers experience a brand for the first time. We wanted the homepage to feel welcoming, authentic and easy to explore.
Work Included:
Designed a custom homepage layout using Shopify sections
Added category banners and featured product areas
Created a brand story section to build trust
Added promotional sections to highlight offers and products
Optimized the homepage for both desktop and mobile users
The final homepage gives customers a clear idea of what the brand offers while making product discovery easier.


3. 300 Additional Product Uploads
Uploading and organizing products was one of the biggest parts of this project.
Work Included:
Added 300 new products manually
Uploaded product images, pricing, titles and descriptions
Assigned products to the correct collections
Added relevant product tags and categories
Configured variants wherever needed
This helped bring the total product catalog to 783 fully organized products.
Because every listing followed the same structure, the store now feels much cleaner and easier to browse.
4. Make.com Automation Setup
To reduce manual work for the team, we integrated automation workflows using Make.com.
Work Included:
Connected Shopify with third-party tools
Automated order notifications and data syncing
Created workflows for repetitive operational tasks
Tested automations carefully to avoid errors
These automations now save the client several hours every week and help reduce manual mistakes.


5. On-Page SEO Optimization
SEO was an important part of the project because the store has hundreds of niche food products that customers actively search for online.
Work Included:
Performed keyword research related to Latin American and Spanish foods
Optimized meta titles and descriptions
Improved image alt text and URL structure
Organized heading structures properly
Added structured data for better Google visibility
Submitted the sitemap to Google Search Console
This created a stronger SEO foundation for long-term organic traffic growth.
6. Shopify App Setup & Configuration
We also installed and configured important Shopify apps to improve operations and customer experience.
Apps Configured:
QuickBooks for accounting and revenue syncing
Privy for email capture and popup campaigns
Ordersify for order management and fulfillment tracking
AfterShip Orders Tracking for shipment updates
AfterShip Returns Center for returns management
Each app was tested carefully to make sure there were no conflicts with the theme or checkout process.
