Bergen

This is how it started.

Merchant was established by a team with roots dating back to 2016, when Shopify was still unknown to most Scandinavian players. While other agencies offered general digital services, we chose to go all in on one platform and become the best at it.

Today we have delivered hundreds of Shopify projects across Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. From startups with big ambitions to established corporations requiring enterprise solutions at Shopify Plus level.

That depth of experience is what sets us apart from the rest. We are not a digital agency offering Shopify. We are a Shopify house that knows everything about the platform.

Our mission.

Scandinavian e-commerce is growing rapidly. Consumers expect more. The competition is getting tougher. In that landscape, having an online store is not enough. It must be fast, scalable, well-integrated, and built for conversion.

This is precisely what our team delivers, day after day, project after project. With specialists in front-end development, system integration, e-commerce strategy, and Shopify Plus, we have the capacity and expertise to elevate brands at all levels.

The mission is to be the most reliable Shopify partner in Scandinavia. This is what we strive for in everything we do.

Our core values.

Specialization everywhere

We do one thing and do it better than anyone else. Shopify is not part of our services. It is our entire business.

Results, not hours

We measure ourselves by the growth we create for our customers, not by the time sheets we send.

Enterprise-standard

All projects, regardless of size, are delivered with the same quality requirements and processes that our largest enterprise customers expect.
