Trade Factory

Trade Factory was engaged by Georgette Packaging, a carbon-neutral packaging company, to develop and maintain their website. The team, comprised of a developer and a project manager, built the website and have been tasked with its ongoing maintenance since October 2017. The partnership came about after Georgette Packaging discovered their previous agency was outsourcing to Trade Factory. The company has invested under $5,000 in the project and reports a significant improvement in their web operations since the direct engagement with Trade Factory.

In another project, Trade Factory was hired by a reading curriculum producer to manage their application. The company owner sought to improve their Shopify Store's shipping options, solve inventory database integration issues, and set up digital product delivery. The owner communicated directly with the head of Trade Factory and one of his engineers. The project was initiated after the owner found Trade Factory through online searches for service providers.

Trade Factory was also contracted by Marvin Ruby, an online apparel store, to customize their Shopify store. The store owner wanted a more personalized design, which Shopify's standard options could not provide. Trade Factory's team, including a programmer and three reviewers, redesigned the store, adjusted text sizes and spacing, removed unnecessary dividing lines, and added scrolling features. The engagement, which cost $1,300, started in November 2020 and is ongoing. The store owner chose Trade Factory based on a friend's recommendation and was particularly drawn to their week-long sprints, allowing continuous additions to the task list.
