TopaShop
Topa Verpakking, specialist in packaging solutions, was stuck for years with a technical partner who could not keep up with their ambitions. Changes to the webshop took too long, license costs were substantial, and the collaboration offered little room for innovation.
We’ve started a migration from Adobe Commerce to Magento Open Source — a smart move that immediately saves Topa a significant amount on recurring licence fees. At the same time, we thoroughly reviewed and cleaned up the entire codebase. The old installation was running on Magento 2.3.1, an outdated and insecure version from 2019. In addition, more than a hundred third-party modules were active, making maintenance and updates both complex and costly. After our intervention, the shop now runs on a stable and secure version with fewer than forty modules. The custom code — amounting to over 140,000 lines — has largely been rewritten or removed. What remains is a clean, efficient foundation to build on once again.
The switch to Hyvä brings Topa immediate, tangible benefits. The old webshop performed poorly: key pages such as the homepage, category page, and product page scored just 38, 31, and even 13 on core web vitals. With Hyvä, these metrics have improved significantly, resulting in a better user experience and higher conversion rates. Equally important, the new CMS enables Topa to easily update and expand content themselves. Innovative product pages and information blocks can now be managed without developer involvement — saving both time and money month after month.
Customers can quickly find the right product on the category page and get immediate insight into all variants on the product page, with automatic generation based on product variables.
Filters are automatically generated and intelligently grouped to prevent long lists, making the ordering process more organized and intuitive.
The new CMS enables Topa Verpakking to easily adjust and expand content themselves without developer intervention.
From an outdated, expensive and sluggish installation to a fast, flexible and affordable platform that is ready for the future.
Vendic took over the technical maintenance of our webshop and performed a Magento version update. From the beginning, communication was clear and professional. The Vendic team not only delivered on what they had promised us, but also executed the entire update smoothly and efficiently. The collaboration went well; the team was always available for questions and updates, and they worked closely with us to ensure everything went according to plan. Support remained excellent even after go-live. Any issues were resolved quickly.
