Brand Depot plans and delivers Shopify migrations for businesses in Kildare and Dublin. As an official Shopify Partner, we assess your existing website, data and workflows before agreeing what will move, what needs rebuilding and how the launch will be managed.
Treat the move as a business change
A migration affects customers, staff and the systems handling orders. Before choosing a theme, we document the existing catalogue, content, customer records and integrations. We also identify features that may not transfer directly, so important limitations are understood while decisions can still be changed.
Agree the data scope
Products, variants, images, collections and customer information need mapping to the destination structure. Historical orders, customer passwords, subscriptions and app-specific data can have different transfer restrictions. We assess the source platform and tools before confirming what can be migrated. A sample import helps expose data issues before the full move.
Protect useful URLs and content
We inventory important existing URLs and map them to the most relevant new destinations. The plan includes redirect checks, internal links, page titles and content that supports current customer demand. Search visibility can fluctuate after a migration, so preservation work reduces avoidable risk without promising unchanged rankings.
A controlled launch process
- Audit the existing website and agree the migration scope.
- Design and build the Shopify destination.
- Map and test data imports and integrations.
- Check representative buying and operational journeys.
- Agree the final data update, domain change and launch responsibilities.
- Review the live site and resolve issues within the agreed support period.
Make the ongoing costs visible
The project scope identifies Shopify subscriptions, paid themes, apps and integration charges where relevant. We also agree who owns each system and who handles support after launch. Your business retains primary control of the store, with collaborator access used for our work.
Frequently asked questions
Can you move a Squarespace or WooCommerce website?
We can assess either platform and scope a move to Shopify. Transferable data and functionality depend on the current setup.
Will every old feature work the same way?
Not necessarily. Some features need a different implementation, an app or custom development. We identify those differences before the build.
Can migration be completed without downtime?
We plan to minimise disruption, but the exact cutover depends on the source platform, domain setup and operational requirements.
