PROJECT OVERVIEW
Texas Gold Shrimp has been selling succulent wild gulf shrimp for over 70 years. From humble beginnings in a single shop, they are now distributed throughout the contiguous USA.
In 2024, Texas Gold Shrimp and Fahrenheit Marketing partnered to modernize their eCommerce store and create a customer experience that reflected the premium nature of their product.
Fahrenheit collaborated closely with the Texas Gold Shrimp team to transform the site into a customer-friendly hub for purchasing shrimp products.

Challenges
Fahrenheit’s first step was to evaluate the existing Magneto 2 system. Notorious for its complexity and high maintenance cost, Fahrenheit found several issues with Magneto 2 that, if fixed, would significantly transform customer experience and revenue potential.
- A Clunky Add-To-Cart Process: The cart experience was frustrating, preventing conversion. For example, in one instance, an unclosable notification box would obstruct a customer’s buying journey.
- Trust Issues: Without a clear refund directive, delivery information, or privacy policy, customers felt uncertain and deterred from completing their purchase.
- An Inconsistent Style: users were faced with an inconsistent visual journey, which was often confusing. Bugs and responsiveness issues exacerbated this.
- Wider Performance Issues: Customers were faced with long loading times, which frustrated them and caused them to abandon their purchase, reducing sales volume.
- The Checkout Process: Magneto 2 has a one-page checkout that is complex and hard to navigate. This step was often the final straw for frustrated customers who abandoned their carts.
Goals
- Streamline the cart experience and improve customer flow and experience
- Implement comprehensive refund, delivery, and privacy policies to increase trust
- Unify design and fix bugs
- Enhance speed and responsiveness to improve conversions
- Simplify the checkout process, minimizing friction and reducing abandoned carts.
SOLUTIONS
Working closely with the Texas Gold Shrimp team to understand their priorities, we implemented a comprehensive plan that involved an intuitive redesign and a migration to a modern platform.
This would improve every aspect of the user experience while decreasing the effort, cost, and internal workload.
