The Challenge

Dirty Clean Food faced a series of operational and digital challenges limiting their growth

  • Veggie Box product required strict delivery rules, but the website couldn't enforce them
  • Outdated Shopify theme caused poor mobile UX and diluted brand messaging
  • Email marketing was under-utilised despite a loyal customer base
  • Manual workflows and fragmented integrations between Shopify, Cin7 (Dear), and Xero created inefficiencies
  • Scalability was constrained by technology gaps

The Solution

Rebuilt for how the business actually operates

We redesigned the storefront and built the operational layer behind it:

  • Custom Shopify App to handle the business's specific delivery logic
  • Klaviyo automation for the lifecycle email programme the brand wasn't running
  • UI/UX rebuild around how customers actually move through the store
  • Custom microservices that extend Cin7 (Dear) to do what the business needs, rather than reshaping the business around the platform's limits

Delivery logic, solved

We rebuilt a private Shopify App to manage complex delivery logic:

  • Enforced delivery windows by postcode and product
  • Reduced confusion and improved customer experience
  • Created a scalable framework for future logistics complexity

Extending Cin7 (Dear) integration

We built a custom microservice that:

  • Handles the data transformation and conditional sync logic the standard integration could not
  • Removes manual reconciliation work between Shopify and Cin7
  • Adapts to the business's specific workflows, so the system serves the business, not the other way around

Email automation

Implemented Klaviyo with strategic flows:

  • Welcome series
  • Win-back campaigns
  • Abandoned cart and post-purchase flows
  • Opened a new revenue channel and increased LCV

The Outcome

Operational Efficiency

  • Reduced support queries and manual errors around Veggie Box delivery
  • Improved delivery accuracy and scalability
  • Enhanced mobile UX for 66%+ of traffic

Sales Performance

  • Held conversion rate steady through the replatform, no drop, even with a new theme
  • Increased average order value via cross-sell mechanics built into the new storefront

Marketing ROI

  • Opened automated email as a new revenue channel that wasn't being used
  • Lifecycle programmes (welcome, win-back, abandoned cart, post-purchase) now run automatically, no manual sends
  • Turned the existing loyal customer base into measurable lifetime value
