Modernized a Magento 2 Store Connecting 37+ Retail Locations

A basic Magento 1 website was limiting performance, usability, and future scalability. Healthy Planet Canada needed a modern omnichannel platform that could improve online shopping, complement its retail network, and reduce cloud and deployment costs.

• Migrating the existing Magento 1 store to a modern Magento 2 environment.
• Refreshing outdated interfaces and shopping journeys that affected conversions.
• Supporting a growing catalog of health, wellness, and nutrition products.
• Connecting online commerce with more than 37 physical retail locations.
• Maintaining performance as website traffic and customer demand increased.
• Reducing cloud infrastructure costs and lengthy deployment cycles.

• The transformation started with a complete Magento 1 to Magento 2 migration, accompanied by substantial UI/UX and functionality upgrades. The redesigned storefront provided a more modern and seamless shopping experience across desktop and mobile devices.
• Elasticsearch was implemented to help customers find products more quickly across the extensive health and wellness catalog. GraphQL supported more efficient product data delivery, while Redis improved application performance and response times.
• To complement the physical store network, the platform was structured as an omnichannel commerce solution. Customers could access products and shopping experiences through a centralized digital storefront while the business gained a stronger foundation for connecting online and retail operations.
• Cloud and DevOps improvements focused on infrastructure efficiency, autoscaling, and streamlined deployments. CI/CD practices reduced manual deployment effort, improved release speed, and helped lower ongoing cloud expenditure.
• Bytes Technolab also supported the platform through SEO and social media marketing. These initiatives increased visibility after launch and helped convert the improved commerce experience into measurable traffic and revenue growth.

Healthy Planet Canada gained a modern Magento 2 commerce platform capable of supporting growing traffic, omnichannel retail, faster releases, and continued business expansion. 

• 200% increase in sales followed the website modernization and improvements across product discovery and customer experience.
• 170% growth in website traffic was generated through SEO and social media marketing initiatives.
• 50% reduction in cloud costs was achieved through infrastructure optimization and improved cloud resource management.
