A small-batch preserve brand from Durbanville — 40+ handmade jams, chutneys and sauces — with an online store true to its no-additives, seasonal-fruit roots.
The problem you will recognise
Heavy pictures made the shop slow to open on a phone. Shoppers had to wait.
More detail
A founder-run preserve business had no way to sell online. Limited production runs sell out fast and customers needed somewhere to browse, order, and arrange collection or delivery.
How we solved it
We made the pictures far lighter. We tidied the shop one piece at a time. We checked the speed after every step.
More detail
A personal storefront with clear product listings, free collection from Durbanville, and Pudo locker delivery from R70. The site reflects the 'small batch, no additives' ethos rather than looking like a generic shop.
What changed
The home page went from 13.7 MB to 0.56 MB, and the main picture now shows in 1.7 seconds instead of 7.

A storefront that honours the brand's authenticity and handles orders without adding overhead to a one-person operation.
