Founded in Delhi, The Chakki Co. is a brand that prides itself on delivering authentic, organic products ranging from spices, nuts, oil, ghee, and pulses. With a vision to provide consumers with premium organic food products, they wanted to expand their reach beyond local markets and take their business online. However, their first eCommerce journey on Shopify proved to be more of a hurdle than a help. The subscription costs were steep, and customizations required expensive technical expertise.

While Shopify was their first platform of choice, it came with a hefty subscription fee and high maintenance costs. Even for small changes, they needed an agency to make technical adjustments, which significantly drove up their operating expenses.
The Chakki Co. heavily relied on a third-party agency for customization, new feature implementation, and regular updates. This dependency led to slow response times, limiting the brand's agility to implement new campaigns or respond to market trends.
The rigid structure of their Shopify store meant limited customization options without specialized technical expertise. This lack of flexibility hindered The Chakki Co. from optimizing its user experience.
The Chakki Co. faced challenges in scaling its operations without incurring high costs. Customizations and growth features that were needed to handle more traffic or launch new campaigns came with a heavy price tag, leading to concerns about profitability.
When The Chakki Co. moved to QPe, their primary goals were:
