The client

Flite is an award winning electric hydrofoil brand based in Byron Bay that now has a global customer base and over 330 stockists based in the USA and Europe. The company continues to expand globally, enhancing accessibility for customers worldwide.

The brief

With a rapidly growing global presence, Fliteboard needed an intuitive and efficient way to help users locate stores and service centers near them, without requiring manual input. They were looking to improve their current workflows and operating systems, particularly in regards to their location management and how the information should be displayed to the users, using geolocation services and the concept of platinum (priority) partners. The goal was to streamline the process, improve user experience, and ensure customers could easily find relevant locations anywhere in the world.

How we helped

30Acres has created a Heroku app to store the locations database and allow it to sync into Shopify pages and sections using API calls.

Fliteboard is now able to view and manage location data in one place from external sources (Google sheets). This data is used to display the 4 closest locations to any users on a specific shopify section and landing page.
