The challenge
OilOnline operated on an aging Magento 1 platform that no longer met modern performance, security, and usability standards. The goals were:
Seamlessly migrate from Magento 1 to Magento 2 with full data preservation
Improve site performance, navigation, and user experience
Simplify the order process and highlight cost-saving opportunities
Build a scalable foundation for future international growth and automation

The solution
We led a full Magento 1 to Magento 2 migration while redesigning and modernizing the entire OilOnline platform. Key areas of focus:
Data migration (products, categories, customers, orders, content) with zero loss
Fresh UX/UI redesign focused on search speed and easy checkout
Advanced filtering and catalog structuring for 5,500+ lubricants
Bulk pricing visibility and VAT-free delivery integration
Streamlined portal for easy access to orders, invoices, and reordering
Automation of backend workflows to support logistics and customer management
By balancing technical precision with user-centered design, we empowered OilOnline to deliver an even faster, more transparent, and efficient customer experience.
