Who we are
We're the Centra & Shopify Plus powering journey-led growth for online brands.
We've set the pace for eCommerce agencies since launching in 2006.
Founded in historic Bath, we’ve spent the past 18 years helping a diverse range of clients reach impressive new heights by maximising the value of their ecommerce investment. Rather than offering isolated services, blubolt orchestrates end-to-end customer journeys that convert, retain, and grow value well beyond the first click. In our early years, we launched our own platform, bluCommerce, which powered high-growth success for great British brands like Seasalt, Hush, and Oliver Bonas.
And we're raising the bar for ambitious brands on Centra & Shopify Plus.
Today, as a Shopify Premier Partner and Centra Agency Partner, we combine insight, user experience, marketing, and technology into a proven growth framework that drives higher conversions and deeper customer relationships. We’ve delivered more than 400 ecommerce projects - from builds and migrations to ongoing growth support - for brands including Never Fully Dressed, Bella Freud, Green People, WYSE London, Lazy Oaf, Snowdonia Cheese, Illumicrate, and Jing Tea.
