Work
4th Arq
I have helped build three versions of the 4TH ARQ store, from their very beginnings to their latest design. Focusing on speed and performance whilst allowing their products to shine.
Clogau Outlet
The Welsh jewellery brand needed to migrate their outlet site to Shopify on a tight deadline. We delivered to a fixed budget and timeline, and continue to support their store through Orbit.
Fred Aldous
Ongoing support for the Manchester-based art and craft supplies retailer. I help keep their Shopify store running smoothly and handle everything from small fixes to larger improvements.
O My Bag
I recently helped O My Bag to expand their Shopify store to include their B2B offering. Moving from a legacy platform I built their store and middleware to integrate with their third party logistics provider.
About
I'm Craig Cooper. I've been working exclusively with Shopify since 2015, helping businesses across the UK, Ireland, Europe, and the United States build and maintain stores that actually work.
I'm honest, direct, and not here to waste your time. If something won't work, I'll say so. If I don't know something, I'll tell you that too. No jargon, no performative polish—just clear communication about what needs doing and how we'll do it.
I move fast because momentum matters. But I also build things that last. Every decision—tech stack, feature design, integration choice—is made with an eye on what's next. Can it scale? Will it need rebuilding in six months? I aim to build things that make the next job easier, or unnecessary.
You've brought me in for my expertise, and I'll use it. I'll advise, challenge assumptions, and bring clear recommendations. But it's your business, your call. I'll never be precious. If you take a different path, I'll respect it and help you make it work.
Why Work With Me
No bullshit, no handoffs
You work directly with me. No account managers, no project coordinators, no layers between you and the person doing the work. If something needs doing, I'll tell you straight. If I don't know something, I'll say so. That honesty is why clients stick around.
Speed without shortcuts
I move fast because momentum matters. But fast doesn't mean cutting corners. Every decision is made with an eye on what's next—can it scale, will it need rebuilding? I build things that make the next job easier, not harder.
Your business, your call
I'll bring expertise, challenge assumptions, and make clear recommendations. But it's your business. If you take a different path, I'll respect it and help you make it work. I'm not here to be precious about my ideas—I'm here to help you succeed.
Shopify, and nothing else
I've worked exclusively with Shopify since 2015. That focus means I know the platform inside out—what works, what doesn't, and what's coming next. You get deep expertise, not someone trying to be good at everything.
Get in Touch
Let's talk about your Shopify project. I'll give you straight answers about what's possible, what makes sense, and whether we're a good fit.
