The Challenge

Wise Food Storage, a leading provider of emergency food essentials and the official sponsor of Doomsday Bunkers on the Discovery Channel, was operating on an outdated and poorly coded e-commerce platform that couldn’t support their growing business. Their existing system lacked the scalability, stability, and security needed for enterprise-level performance, putting their profitability and growth at risk. Critical pain points included:

  1. Lack of Scalability: The previous platform couldn’t handle increasing traffic and sales volume, threatening revenue growth.
  2. Unstable and Inefficient Codebase: Poorly coded systems introduced errors and inefficiencies that impacted operations and customer experience.
  3. Complex Data Migration Needs: Migrating essential business data—such as coupons, affiliate information, sales history, products, and user data—posed a significant challenge.
  4. Custom Feature Requirements: Wise needed a fully customized solution, including a coupon module, affiliate program integration, and a bespoke shipping module.
  5. Urgent Timeline: With only three weeks to complete the migration and rebuild, there was no room for delays or errors.
