A dedicated Shopify agency, we specialise in building, growing and scaling Lifestyle brands.
We’re end-to-end partners for brands that want to be more than just a purchase. We were born in 2016 and have been helping direct-to-consumer brands like AVON, French Connection, Comet and Castore scale ever since. We’ve made a mark in the Shopify Plus world, but involve ourselves beyond just building ecommerce stores. As growth marketers, we also focus on how to drive high-quality traffic to your stores - and turn that traffic into long-term, repeat customers and recurring revenue.
Another recent launch to show you. Honestly, the little design flourishes on this site are tremendous. Plus they have great products and like a million pictures of happy dogs. 😍
It's been a pleasure to be a part of this brand's growth - and not just because they said lovely things about us!
"Working with previous agencies, thinking they did a good job, then coming to Velstar, seeing the actual care, dedication and time put into our new site has generally been a breath of fresh air, the whole process was easy, we worked together seamlessly and got the site launched to a standard I'd expect."
If you love great website design, dogs, or want to treat your best friend, you should take a look at: https://bit.ly/47FVQEL
Check out our latest site launch (one of two) for Heart of Midlothian F.C. - on which they recently sold out their new home kit (which is lovely btw).
This has been a fantastic project to work on (and not just because Naismith is a blue). Needless to say, Hibs fans might be slightly jealous of the new Shopify checkout process - but it's not too late to change allegiances. 🫣
We've noticed a growing number of sports clubs moving their stores to Shopify for ease of integration and great UX, so if you'd like to join that growing list - why not get it touch?
We're really proud of how the site has turned out, so whether or not you're a fan of The Jam Tarts, you should take a look at: https://bit.ly/3DJuMqc
We had a few launches last week and were really pleased with how things went!
The first we can share with you is for the awesome Proviz - a replatform from Magento to Shopify that saw the new site outperform their previous headless solution in page speed tests!
Shine brighter indeed!

At Shopify Unite back in June of 2021, the next step in Shopify’s evolution was announced. While it wasn't exactly a Charizard, it was still pretty big news.
Today we're publishing a guide to the six core changes made, how they have progressed over the last two years, and what they mean for the future of your business and Shopify itself.
It's a bit long, but we like it!

Over the last few months we've done a deep-dive into the differences, benefits and costs of two of the largest enterprise ecommerce platforms in the world.
We've been battling myths, slaying misinformation, giving half-truths a bit of a roughing up - and this is the result.
We cover everything from the app ecosystem to SEO performance, accessibility, internationalisation and more all in five amazing (if we do say so ourselves) sections:
- Building
- Integrating
- Optimising
- Selling
- Pricing
You can read it now, and if you ever want to discuss your best option over a brew - you can give us a call!

It's a great pleasure to introduce Laura Black, our new Operations Director. In her own words:
"I was working merchant side eight years ago when we I was introduced to Shopify during a re-platform. I then spent a couple of years working for major retailers, supporting C-suite professionals and watching how they ran store operations.
For the past 5 years I have been working for Shopify Plus Agencies - most recently in the role of Operations Director. I take great pride in ensuring our team are constantly improving our delivery service and always delivering the best Client Experience to our merchants.
It's important to me that Velstar feels like an extension of your business - our teams are aligned with your goals and vision, and we work proactively to help you reach them."

After our monthly catch-up last Friday, our Velstars were treated to a special event we'll call, for copyright purposes, Blongo's Blingo. Amazing time had by all!
All in all, we also managed to raise £500 for the Liverpool Women's Hospital! What a month! What a place to work!

Over the weekend, some of the team adventured along the coastal roads of Wirral as what I believe we can legally call a team-building exercise. It was hot, apparently, so there were frequent stops for much needed... hydration? Big thanks to Kerry for organising!

We don't shout about it (we will be, though), but we launched a new site recently and are really pleased with the results. Working to bring the best of Asian food to the world, Kelly Loves is a remarkable business, and we enjoyed building a site to help them achieve their goals.

When it comes to ecommerce partners, brands are increasingly spoiled for choice – and it was a desire to set ourselves apart that led to the decision to put outside-the-box thinking at the heart of the latest quarterly gathering of the Velstar team. While we're predominately hybrid or remote, the ambition was to bring everyone together to develop the agency’s thinking and culture in a unique way.
