Pod & Parcel: Replatform

Simplifying the tech stack and empowering the team with a native Shopify experience.

Pod & Parcel partnered with Moustache Republic to migrate their AU site from a complex headless setup to a fully native Shopify Online Store 2.0 theme. This strategic move simplified their tech stack, resolved critical operational issues, and empowered their team with easy-to-use content management tools, unlocking a smoother, more engaging experience for their customers.

Migrate from a complex headless architecture to a native Shopify 2.0 theme to simplify operations.

Empower the Pod & Parcel team with intuitive content management, removing technical barriers.


Enhance the customer journey by leveraging Shopify's native features for a smoother, faster UX.

Design

Development

Rebuilt the site on a fully native Shopify Online Store 2.0 framework, removing the Sanity CMS.

Integrated key subscription and marketing tools, including Recharge, Klaviyo, and Loyalty Lion.

Resolved persistent issues with price and product updates by moving to a unified Shopify environment.

While Pod & Parcel’s headless setup was technically advanced, it created significant operational roadblocks. The complex architecture made simple tasks like updating prices or managing content a challenge, requiring developer intervention and slowing down the team’s ability to react to market changes. The disconnect between their CMS and Shopify’s core functionality meant they were missing out on the platform’s latest features, and the user experience suffered as a result.

We brought it all back home.

Moustache Republic rebuilt the Pod & Parcel site on a fully native Shopify 2.0 theme, removing the headless complexity and placing the power back in the hands of their team. By migrating to a native theme, we eliminated the technical debt and operational friction, allowing for instant price and product updates. The new OS 2.0 framework provides the Pod & Parcel team with flexible, drag-and-drop content management, while seamless integrations with Recharge, Klaviyo, and Loyalty Lion ensure their core business tools work in harmony.

The result is a simplified, powerful, and scalable platform that delivers a smoother customer experience and empowers the team to grow the brand without barriers.
