Industry

Home & Lifestyle

Nood Co’s existing WordPress website was buggy, difficult to maintain, and a barrier to global growth. To support their international strategy, we designed and developed three standalone Shopify websites across Australia, the US, and Europe, all powered by a custom theme.

Each store was tailored to its region, ensuring compliance with trade agreements while delivering a seamless shopping experience. By focusing on performance, scalability, and ease of management, we helped Nood Co execute on their global vision without compromise.

Global expansion powered by Shopify Plus: How Nood Co scaled across three continents with custom ecommerce development

Nood Co is an Australian-made premium concrete basin brand. Founded by product designer Matt, Nood Co combines craftsmanship, fast production, and distinctive design with a strong focus on lifestyle aesthetics. With a growing reseller network across Australia and the US, they were ready to expand globally and elevate their digital presence.

The Challenge

Nood Co’s WordPress site was holding them back:

Clunky UX: not aesthetically aligned with their design-led product.
Lack of storytelling: no lifestyle feel or brand engagement.
Scalability issues: difficult to manage different markets, pricing, and shipping.
Lost market share: conversions had slowed, despite premium positioning.
Disconnected systems: Odoo ERP and reseller tools weren’t linked to their ecommerce.

They needed a site that could:

Inspire customers with lifestyle imagery.
Support regional pricing, shipping, and marketing.
Scale with reseller and D2C growth.
Position them competitively against Concrete Nation and Kast Concrete.

The Solution

Prosper Digital delivered a Shopify Plus multi-store solution, designed for scalability and brand integrity:

Three standalone Shopify sites — Australia, US, and Europe — each tailored for regional pricing, shipping, and compliance.
GEO-IP routing to automatically guide shoppers to the right site.
Custom theme designed to emphasise lifestyle and emotional connection first, function second.

Advanced engineering:

Synced user-generated content via AWS S3 buckets.
Extended Shopify product configuration to align with Odoo ERP and SKUs.
Trade enablement: Custom store locator and wholesale-ready functionality to support resellers.

The Impact

20% YoY sales increase in week one of launch.
Faster global roll-out with infrastructure for Asia and South America expansion.
Elevated brand positioning with lifestyle-driven storytelling.
Reseller support that makes it easier for trade partners to sell and specify products.
