Client Overview
In 2021, amidst the challenges posed by the global pandemic and a rapidly expanding vape market, Herbaltides recognised the need to revamp its digital presence.
The existing OpenCart platform was becoming increasingly inadequate in meeting the evolving demands of online retail. Depixion was engaged to lead a comprehensive rebranding and digital transformation initiative, aiming to enhance user experience, streamline backend operations, and reposition the brand in a competitive landscape.
