Company Overview

The Working Party is an Australian Shopify Plus specialist working with large retailers on platform transformation, headless commerce, loyalty, integrations and conversion improvement. Its portfolio is oriented toward complex retail environments where architecture, internal enablement and operational scale matter as much as storefront design.

The agency combines ecommerce strategy, UX/UI, solution architecture, API and middleware work, Shopify migration and ongoing optimization. Public projects include electronics, fashion, food and subscription commerce, with several engagements showing how Shopify Plus can support enterprise workloads and connected retail experiences.

The Good Guys is the clearest transformation example: The Working Party delivered a composable, API-led headless Shopify Plus migration after a six-week proof of concept for one of Australia’s major appliance retailers. SHEIKE demonstrates the customer-retention side of the practice, with a custom loyalty ecosystem that the agency says reached 230,000 members in under 12 months. Both projects show enterprise-scale execution beyond conventional theme builds.
