Union Works is a small, senior team of Shopify developers specialising in custom app development. We build private, custom and public Shopify apps that power bespoke workflows, complex features and advanced business logic for growing merchants. Our team of four has been building on Shopify since 2016, with deep experience across the Shopify Admin API, Storefront API, Functions, webhooks, and Shopify POS. We regularly use apps as the backbone for tailored solutions, whether that’s extending checkout and POS behaviour, integrating third-party systems, or creating custom tools that don’t exist off-the-shelf. We focus on well-architected, maintainable solutions that fit neatly into a merchant’s existing stack. From internal tools and private apps to fully supported public apps, we’re comfortable handling complex requirements and translating them into reliable, scalable Shopify solutions.

Shopify SEO and AEO Consultant–Let's get you found. I built my own Shopify store, The Kind Pet, to $50K in its first year organically with zero ad spend. That's the same structure I build for other stores: collections mapped to how people actually search, content that answers the question before they're asked, and a site that both Google and AI search engines can actually read. After 8+ years working in eCommerce (including building Shopify stores and helping brands double their traffic while growing organic revenue to 30–50% through SEO and conversion strategies), I made the move fully into Shopify growth consulting. What I work on: Site and navigation architecture by user intent Commercial keyword research paired with the collection build-out FAQ and AEO structure–mapped and marked up as schema Internal linking maps built for faster indexing Technical SEO and Core Web Vitals Backlinking SEO Content Marketing Conversion Rate Optimization Recent results: Skincare brand achieving $20K in Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales from organic sales Client organic revenue up 255% in one month, and a separate client up 104% in three months, following collection and keyword restructuring Repeat clients who return project after project once the structure is in place Types of clients: Small to medium-sized merchants Beauty, apparel, hardware, pets, etc. 2-6 year client lifetime–we strive for long-term partnerships Canadian merchants: I charge the same in USD and CAD, so you'll never have to pay for conversion.
I'm a Shopify developer with years of hands-on experience building and scaling e-commerce stores — from custom theme development to conversion rate optimization and third-party integrations.

I specialize in Liquid programming, frontend development, and UI/UX enhancement. Whether you need a full theme build, a tricky app integration, or a speed and SEO overhaul, I bring a detail-oriented approach that gets results — not just code. I leverage AI tools like ChatGPT and GitHub Copilot throughout my workflow — drafting Liquid logic faster, QA-testing edge cases, and generating content-ready section structures. This means faster turnaround, fewer revisions, and more value for your budget. My background spans custom store builds, GA4 + GTM tracking setups, Klaviyo integrations, loyalty app configurations, A/B testing, and cross-functional collaboration with design and marketing teams. I treat every project like it's my own store on the line. I'm a Computer Software Engineering graduate and Growth Collective certified in Creative Website Design (Shopify). Let's build something that converts.

From new store launches to migrations and strategic redesigns, we partner with ambitious brands ready to scale. What Sets Us Apart: We own outcomes, not just tasks. We focus on revenue impact, not activity. Our clients average 25-35% improvement in conversion rates within the first 3 months of working together. We've been merchants ourselves. As store owners, we know that revenue is everything. We've experienced slow load times tanking conversions, poor UX killing AOV, and features that sounded good but added friction. That's why we're obsessed with optimization. We don't add complexity unless it drives growth. Every design choice, every line of code, every feature we implement is validated against one metric: Does this help your customers buy more? Results speak louder than promises. Our clients see 25-35% conversion rate improvements, reduced cart abandonment, and higher average order values. We measure success by your revenue growth, not by completion dates.

How to hire a Shopify AI expert for a store in the UK
Start from the problem, not the tool: say what you need done, how you will measure it and what systems are involved. Specific briefs get quotes you can compare.
Reviews. Since 6 April 2025, fake reviews have been banned under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act, and AI-written reviews count. AI can summarise real reviews; it must not write them.
Customer data. UK GDPR applies when customer or order data goes to an AI provider. Ask which providers the expert uses, where the data is processed and what is kept.
Ask each expert for a live store they worked on, what they handed over at the end and who maintains the work afterwards.

Yes, if they have done it before. Ask for a live store in your market and how they handled the local points above, and get any legal or tax questions checked by a local adviser.
Not always. AI earns its place when it moves a specific number, such as support tickets answered or time spent on product copy. If you can't name one, fix the basics first.
Start with an app if one covers your use case; the expert's work is setup, prompts and testing. Commission a custom build only when apps can't follow your product rules or connect to the systems you need.
