ABOUT THE HOPE FACTORY
We help brands that give a damn grow on Shopify.
The Hope Factory is a specialized Shopify Premier Partner agency located in Melbourne, Australia. Since 2008, we have been involved in designing, building, and expanding Shopify and Shopify Plus stores, completing over 450 projects and receiving 190 verified reviews on the Shopify Partner directory. Our clients include brands that prioritize their online experience, such as Wittner, Sennheiser, Jo Mercer, Coco & Lola, Robert Gordon, Patagonia, Cancer Council, Tontine, Axil Coffee, and Veneziano Coffee Roasters, as well as numerous smaller brands in fashion, home goods, coffee, sports, and B2B sectors. Our primary focus is on conversion rather than accolades; effective design ensures that customers easily find and purchase what they need. We offer services for new builds, platform migrations (from Magento, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, etc.), strategy consulting, UX audits, conversion rate optimization, and continuous development through flexible time blocks. Our small, experienced team is entirely based in Australia, allowing you to collaborate directly with those executing the work—no passing off to junior staff after the sales process. We have demonstrated tangible results for clients, such as a 233% increase in online revenue for Robert Gordon, a 52% rise in product view sessions for Write To Me, a 102% boost in average order value for Eco Branders, and a 23% drop in returns for Jo Mercer after revamping their product pages to highlight sizing information. We understand the frustrations of working with agencies and have built our reputation over 18 years by delivering quality work from the start.
