Manta5 CASE STUDY: Taking the first hydrofoil e-bike to the world

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Manta5 asked Company-X to build four e-commerce websites simultaneously for the launch of its revolutionary Hydrofoil Bike.

Manta5's revolutionary Hydrofoil Bike allows riders to plane across the surface of the water like never before!

Manta5 was about to launch the world’s first hydrofoil e-bike.

The company needed multiple websites internationally that could withstand hundreds of thousands of hits per month.

Manta5 had developed a minimum viable website when Company-X was asked to help.

Company-X designed and developed four e-commerce websites simultaneously.

Company-X designer and developer Pete Stewart had skills in the Shopify front end.

The Shopify e-commerce platform was designed with online stores and retail point-of-sale systems in mind.

Manta5 provided Pete with a style guide and photos and he designed some mock-ups based on its existing website.

THE RESULTS

It took about six weeks from the start of design to launch the New Zealand website and about another month to launch EU, UK and US websites.

“We chose Company-X to take it to the next level in preparation for international sales because we knew they had the know-how for building e-commerce websites that could sell the Hydrofoiler XE-1 in multiple regions across the world.”
