Sweet Bloom Coffee Roasters is noted for both beautiful coffee as well as a deep care for their role in the full cycle of coffee.<\/h2>\n

We worked with their brilliant team to create a completely new online shop that would allow them to share meaningful stories of their coffee journey and impact.[\/vc_column_text]\tVisit Sweet Bloom's Website<\/span><\/a>\n\n\t[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″]\t\t\t

Transparency Throughout<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]As a leader in transparency, Sweet Bloom is interested in educating consumers about their coffee, which rotates as regularly as the seasons. We designed product pages that are easily digestible to the casual consumer, while also diving into recommended preparations, transparency reporting, and producer stories.<\/p>\n

Visiting their\u00a0new website, you get a sense of the people behind the coffee, from producers through to the cup in your hand.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ animation=”animation right-to-left”][vc_column_text]\n

Production Matters<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]A successful redesign should not only engage customers, but also address the needs and desires of the folks managing and fulfilling from an e-commerce website. In coffee, that means mapping out production workflow; everything from coffee roasting to shipping should be considered.<\/p>\n

To this end, we replatformed Sweet Bloom to WooCommerce, allowing for a streamlined production flow, integration with accounting software, and a stronger alignment with wholesale customers.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row thb_full_width=”true” thb_divider_position=”bottom” css=”.vc_custom_1708120716810{margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 8vh !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;background-color: #f0f0f0 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner thb_max_width=”max_width” el_class=”align-center”][vc_column_inner offset=”vc_col-lg-9 vc_col-md-10″]\t\t
