Challenge
Selling over 170 specialty food products online requires a shop that can handle real complexity: categories, filters, product variations, bundle promotions, and upsell logic — all while feeling warm, appetising, and trustworthy.
The brand also had a story to tell. Cholomon is not just a product name — it is a place, a mountain, a region, and a philosophy of small-producer authenticity. The website needed to carry that story in a way that added meaning to every purchase, rather than presenting the products as just another online catalogue.
The audience includes German consumers with an interest in authentic Mediterranean food — a market that rewards beautiful product presentation, clear provenance, and easy shopping.
Solution
We built a WooCommerce shop designed around natural food photography and a clean, readable structure. The homepage showcases promotional bundles through stacked hero banners — organic herb discounts, pasta combo packs, wine bundles — giving customers immediate value signals on arrival.
Category navigation is layered and logical: products can be explored by type (Olivenöl & Co., Weine, Köstlichkeiten, Tee & Gewürze, Nudeln & Soßen, Trüffel und Spezialitäten) and by manufacturer (Gaea Landschaft, Naturkind, Laopetra, etc.), with a price range filter. Individual product pages lead with strong photography and detailed descriptions that emphasise origin and production method.
The brand story section — "Berg Cholomon und die Region" — grounds the shopping experience in the landscape of Chalkidiki, with calligraphic type and nature photography that communicates why the provenance of these products matters.
The mobile view is fully optimised: all sections, navigation, promotions, and categories are clear and tappable on smartphone screens.
