Featured Site - Manchester Minerals

Manchester Minerals is a retail and wholesale supplier of semi precious gemstones, jewellery and jewellery making supplies.

We have been working with Manchester Minerals for 4 years now as technical support and designers for their Actinic website. The website is responsible for about a third of their business and as such needs a fresh and inviting look.

We have recently revised the logo and navigation to include significantly easier methods for getting around the site.

How long does it take to build a web shop?

From the point at which we have received all necessary information and content, it usually takes between 4 to 6 weeks to complete and launch a web shop

If your needs are much simpler and you only have a couple of products, alternative solutions can be found that can be completed even quicker than this.
