Leave SFCC or Demandware for Shopify Without Losing Multi-Store Catalog or Retail Ops
Phased migration for teams leaving Salesforce Commerce Cloud (SFCC), including legacy Demandware, for Shopify, preserving complex catalogs, multi-store retail operations, SEO, and ERP/STORIS integrations.
Leaving SFCC is a catalog, multi-store, and operations problem, not a theme swap.
Enterprise catalog models, site-specific merchandising, and ERP seams rarely survive a lift-and-shift. Shopify is the destination, common in multi-store furniture and specialty retail where ops complexity is the risk.
Multi-store catalog mapping
SFCC master/variant models, site catalogs, and pricing rules need deliberate Shopify product, variant, and metafield modeling per brand or region.
SEO & URL continuity
Redirects, sitemaps, and structured data planned so organic equity survives the move off Demandware/SFCC URL patterns.
Retail & showroom ops
Multi-location inventory, associate workflows, and high-consideration buying journeys must stay coherent through cutover.
ERP / STORIS re-integration
When STORIS or another ERP remains system of record, inventory, orders, and deposits need a reliable Shopify seam, not manual reconciliation.
Integration & job inventory
SFCC jobs, custom pipelines, and third-party connectors get mapped to Shopify-native patterns, apps, or owned middleware.
Phased cutover & rollback
Store-by-store or region-by-region waves, freeze windows, and a defined pause path so go-live is controlled.
Enterprise suite exits and Shopify launches, with senior delivery.
We treat replatforms like product launches: mapped entities, phased loads, and integration discipline, with deep STORIS + Shopify experience when that stack is in play.
Senior-led delivery
Architecture and engineering leads stay on the program after the pitch, not a bait-and-switch staffing model.
Migration discipline
Idempotent jobs, reconciliation, acceptance criteria per entity, and cutover playbooks before anyone names a go-live date.
STORIS + Shopify depth
Specialty proof when STORIS stays in the loop, programs where Shopify and STORIS stay honest through catalog and fulfillment complexity.
Map first. Migrate in waves. Cut over with a playbook.
An SFCC / Demandware → Shopify program is sequenced around catalog truth, multi-store ops, SEO continuity, and integration seams, not a single risky flip.
Discovery & mapping
Site catalogs, custom attributes, job pipelines, and business rules that must survive on Shopify.
SEO-safe catalog strategy
Product modeling, URL design, and redirect matrices planned before bulk loads begin.
Middleware / ERP plan
Define ownership, sync contracts, and reconciliation when ERP/OMS (including STORIS) remains system of record.
Phased cutover
Store or region waves, parallel checks, freeze windows, and rollback triggers rehearsed with ops.
Multi-store retail and Shopify migrations.
Furniture and specialty retail programs where catalog integrity, STORIS/ERP continuity, and operational complexity mattered, illustrative of the migration discipline SFCC exits require.
+127% Shopify net sales. We moved Home Zone Furniture from nopCommerce to Shopify, improving their design and catalog organization in the process. STORIS remained their system of record.
All source → Shopify paths and shared cutover discipline in one place.
