Overview
Overview
Spicewood Organics is a D2C brand from Kochi bringing authentic, organic spices to health-conscious consumers. Their handcrafted products had a strong local following, but their digital presence was holding back nationwide expansion.
They needed a platform that could handle recurring subscriptions, direct customer support via WhatsApp, and seamless delivery integration to scale their business across India.
The Challenge
What Wasn't Working
The brand struggled with a fragmented tech stack and high drop-off rates:
- Inability to offer recurring subscriptions for their popular spice boxes
- Manual shipping management that took hours every day
- High cart abandonment due to limited localized payment options
- Disjointed customer support causing delays in query resolutions
- Slow mobile experience affecting their primary traffic source
Our Approach
How We Solved It
We built a high-performance custom Shopify theme tailored to their brand aesthetics, integrating advanced subscription models for their recurring spice box deliveries.
To streamline operations, we integrated Shiprocket for automated shipping labels and Razorpay for seamless local payment options like UPI and NetBanking.
A direct WhatsApp order integration was implemented to offer instant support and capture orders from less tech-savvy customers directly.
