Five focused service lines, all related to commerce. We don't take work outside of these.
Shopify Theme Development
We design and build production-grade Shopify themes from scratch — Liquid, Online Store 2.0 sections, theme app extensions, and the Horizon architecture for newer storefronts. Every theme we ship is performance-budgeted, accessible by default, and structured so a non-technical merchandiser can run the store without engineering help.
Hydrogen & Headless Commerce
For brands that have outgrown a templated storefront, we build headless commerce experiences on Shopify Hydrogen, deployed on Oxygen or Vercel. We integrate with the Storefront API, Customer Account API, and Shop Pay, and we handle the full lifecycle from architecture to launch.
Custom Shopify Apps
Public or private Shopify apps built against the Admin API and GraphQL Storefront API — including embedded admin UIs, webhooks, billing, and storefront extensions. We deliver apps that respect Shopify's review guidelines and pass certification.
Native iOS & Mobile Apps
Vertical Commerce LLC develops native iOS applications and distributes them through the Apple App Store under our own developer account. We build companion mobile apps for our commerce clients (loyalty, ordering, in-store tooling) as well as a small in-house line of retail productivity apps. Our mobile work is the reason we maintain an Apple Developer Program membership.
Performance Audits & Consulting
Lighthouse and Core Web Vitals audits, accessibility reviews, mobile UX reviews, and architectural consulting. We deliver written reports with prioritized, actionable findings — not a slide deck. Suitable for teams considering a replatform or trying to recover storefront speed.
Engagement model
We work on scoped, fixed-deliverable engagements. Most projects start with a paid discovery week to align on scope, architecture, and success criteria before commitment. New project enquiries: sales@verticalcommerce.llc.
