Sumas Gro Media Ltd.

Located in Chilliwack, British Columbia, in the lush Sumas Valley farming region, Sumas Gro Media is Western Canada’s Largest Supplier of Customized Potting Soils for the Wholesale Industry. Sumas Gro Media has built a reputation for efficiency and accuracy using the highest quality of commercial-grade materials. The Dutch-designed facility, alongside the lean-flow management, has helped clients receive top-quality potting soil that meets the specific needs of different crops and growing styles.

Sumas Gro Media wanted to increase sales by offering e-commerce to consumer buyers and simplify reorders for their commercial clients.

While the previous website did list their products, the new one has built-in ordering and purchase functionality. Since they had already paid for custom programming on their related company, Meadows Landscaping and Augustine Soil, the development costs were less for this website.

What is unique to this website is the client login to repurchase custom soil mixes. Augustine primarily deals with commercial greenhouses that purchase large quantities of soil mixed specifically for their products. This site allows customers to reorder and ship the products they need quickly.

Sumas Gro Media chose to take some of their more popular mixes and sell them by the bag or truck for more consumer use. The site is very sales oriented with these products and pricing being the first thing you see. One of the biggest design focuses was making the ordering page clear and easy to use This website uses soft greens and images of greenhouse operations. Detailed information about products allows for better search engine ratings. The navigation is very simple and prominent, allowing for easy ordering of products.
