The website of the customer faced several technical glitches during promotional activities. It also lacked a streamlined approach for SCM (Source Code Management) and displayed inaccuracies in the usage of SCM & CI/CD tools.

The customer desired to update the existing sales platform and enhance their product portfolio. The primary requirement was to develop an intuitive and user-friendly website with high performance attributes.

The ecommerce store received a fresh design and PWA application using Magento 2 Commerce Cloud Edition version 2.3.4.
