About Stormtech

Stormtech is a Canadian sports apparel and equipment brand specializing in products designed for specialty retail companies and corporations. With a global customer base and a commitment to high-quality, functional gear, Stormtech needed a modern commerce platform that could support both its B2B and B2C operations while integrating seamlessly with existing business systems.

Overview 

In 2018, Stormtech partnered with Pixafy (now Kensium) to migrate from its Magento-based portals to a dual Shopify Plus solution—one for B2B and one for B2C. The project included a custom-built connector for Aprise ERP to automate order and pricing synchronization, enhanced UX/UI for global audiences, and advanced search capabilities. The result was a scalable, cost-efficient ecosystem built to handle diverse customer needs across multiple channels.
