#  BigCommerce Design &amp; Development 

BigCommerce is the platform of choice for many B2B and B2B2C brands — and we’ve been building on it longer than most.

We handle everything from theme development and custom storefronts to complex B2B configurations, multi-storefront setups, and performance optimization.

Our builds are delivered on time, and on budget, and they are built to last. No technical debt, no shortcuts that create problems six months later. Just solid, performant ecommerce that works as hard as your team does.

**This is for you if:**

- You’re launching on BigCommerce and want a team that knows the platform cold.
- You’re on BigCommerce but your current implementation is underperforming — slow, rigid, or full of workarounds.
- You need B2B-specific features — custom pricing, quote workflows, account hierarchies — done right.

**What you’ll get from this:**

- A custom storefront built to your brand and business requirements.
- Full B2B feature configuration tailored to your buyer workflows.
- Performance-optimized implementation with clean, maintainable code.
- A team that stays available after launch — not one that disappears when the invoice is paid.

##  Frequently Asked Questions 

Why BigCommerce instead of Shopify?Different fits for different shops. BigCommerce wins on B2B-native features (B2B Edition, account hierarchies, custom pricing), no SKU/​order limits at scale, and stronger headless/​composable support. Shopify wins on ecosystem size and design ergonomics. Read [Game of Ecommerce Thrones: BigCommerce vs Shopify Plus](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/blog/best-ecommerce-platform-for-b2b-business-bigcommerce/) for the longer comparison. We’re a [BigCommerce Partner](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/bigcommerce-partner/) since 2010, so we know the platform deeply, but we’re vendor-independent in [Platform Selection](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/services/platform-selection-evaluation/).

We're already on BigCommerce. Why switch agencies?Most agencies build the launch and disappear. The ​“underperforming current implementation” pattern (slow, rigid, full of workarounds) is the result. We stay available after launch, and if the build is technically debt-heavy, we can refactor it without a full replatforming.

Can you handle BigCommerce B2B Edition specifically?Yes, we handle B2B Edition specifically: [BigCommerce B2B Edition](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/bigcommerce-b2b-edition/) work is one of our highest-touch areas as a BigCommerce Partner since 2010. We’ve configured account hierarchies, quote workflows, custom pricing groups, and EDI integrations across many implementations, most of them B2B or hybrid B2B/B2C. See [B2B eCommerce](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/services/b2b-ecommerce/) for the broader B2B service.

Do you do headless BigCommerce builds?Yes, but selectively. Headless BigCommerce gives you full design freedom and front-end performance, at the cost of complexity and ongoing dev investment. We recommend it when there’s a clear reason: bespoke front-end, multi-channel, performance bottlenecks the standard storefront can’t fix. See [Headless / Composable Commerce](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/services/headless-composable-commerce/) for when it makes sense.

What about ongoing maintenance after launch?Ongoing maintenance is covered by [Maintenance Services](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/services/maintenance-services/) or [Monthly Sprint Planning &amp; Execution](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/services/monthly-sprint-planning-execution/), depending on the volume of work you expect. Light upkeep fits the maintenance retainer; a steady stream of improvements fits the sprint model better. The agency that disappears after the invoice is the wrong agency for ecommerce: the platform changes, the catalog evolves, the integrations break.

Show me a BigCommerce build you've done.Seven public examples: [EGO](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/case-studies/ego/), [IGT Microelectronics](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/case-studies/igt-microelectronics/), [Shimoda](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/case-studies/shimoda/), [Photo Video Edu](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/case-studies/photo-video-edu/), [Cinetics](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/case-studies/cinetics/), [W‑Systems](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/case-studies/wsystems/), and [Sekonic](https://www.takefortytwo.com/en/case-studies/sekonic/), most of them B2B or B2B/B2C hybrid. Several arrived as migrations from other platforms, so the case studies cover replatforming work alongside design and development. Tell us your vertical and we’ll point you to the closest match.

####  Headless / Composable Commerce 

Headless is not a trend. It's the architecture for brands that need more speed, more flexibility, and more control than a traditional storefront can give them.
