Project Summary

Luxury For Princess, a premium hair extension brand with storeviews for Netherlands, Germany, and USA, needed help to improve their e-commerce experience. We chose Hyvä for a fast, flexible, and scalable solution.

A Hyvä-based multi-store implementation across three markets, with a solid technical foundation.

We implemented a multistore strategy for three different markets (Netherlands, Germany, USA). Each market with specific configurations and settings

We kept the original Luma-based checkout to preserve existing integrations

We created custom widgets for video content and advanced navigation

Integrated Multistore Strategy

Luxury For Princess operates three storeviews tailored for different regions, all running on the same efficient codebase:

Netherlands - local language, currency, and specific delivery options

Germany - optimized for German audience and local tax rules

USA - performance-oriented store, ready for international market

The unified codebase ensures ease of maintenance, while region-specific configurations allow the brand to customize experiences based on geography.
