I Art Supplies
Specialty craft supplies retailer. 18k SKUs across 200+ brands, with custom search, faceted navigation, and supplier dropship integration.
Overview
A specialty craft supplies retailer carried 18k SKUs across 200+ brands and needed shoppers to actually find what they wanted.
The build focused on custom search, faceted navigation, and supplier dropship integration to keep stock accurate across an enormous catalogue.
The challenge
18k SKUs from 200+ brands across paint, paper, brushes and tools made searching for a specific Winsor and Newton raw umber painful. Drop-ship suppliers updated stock irregularly.
What we built
Custom search with brand x medium x technique faceting. Auto-correction and synonym mapping for art-supply terminology. Dropship sync via supplier API webhooks for real-time stock.
What changed
- Search-to-result: 2.8s for 90th percentile queries
- 18k SKUs categorised across 47 facets
- 200+ brands integrated
- Search-driven revenue +44% vs. previous platform
