Five new Shopify stores, five different industries — from women's fashion to fitness supplements. Here's a first look at what Konekt built, and the tech powering each launch.
New month, new storefronts. In our first Launch Roundup, we're spotlighting five brand-new e-commerce stores that Konekt designed, built, and shipped for clients across fashion, menswear, and fitness — all running on Shopify, all built for speed, mobile shopping, and local payment methods like Koko and Mintpay.
Here's what's new on the Sri Lankan online shopping scene this round:
1. Louve – Trend-Led Women's Fashion (shoplouve.com)
The brand: Louve is a women's clothing and accessories label built around fast-moving trends — think party wear, dresses, tops, trousers, skirts, and accessories that rotate with the season. The brand leans heavily on social-first marketing, with active Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok storefronts driving traffic straight to the site.
The build: Konekt delivered a fully custom Shopify storefront with curated collection landing pages, Shopify's native digital wallet checkout for one-tap mobile purchases, and a streamlined account, wishlist, and order-tracking experience — all optimised for the mobile-heavy traffic a fashion brand like Louve depends on.
2. Croco – Intimates & Athleisure with a Premium Edge (crocoonline.lk)
The brand: CrocoOnline (home to the "Veira by Croco" label) is a Colombo-based intimates and active & athleisure store — bras, leggings, and loungewear positioned around comfort and quiet luxury, with a flagship store on Vajira Road, Colombo 5.
The build: The Shopify store Konekt built supports detailed size and colour variant selection (essential for intimates sizing), wishlist and product comparison tools, quick-view shopping, and multiple card payment options including Visa, Mastercard, Amex, and Diners Club — built to handle a high-SKU catalog without overwhelming shoppers.
3. Sorelle – Effortless Everyday Womenswear (sorelle.lk)
The brand: Sorelle (Pvt) Ltd positions itself around "effortless" women's clothing — dresses, linen pieces, tops, crop tops, pants, and skirts designed for comfort and movement, sold from its Colombo 6 base.
The build: Every product page on the new Sorelle store includes built-in Buy-Now-Pay-Later messaging via both Koko and Mintpay, showing shoppers their 3-instalment price right next to the product price — a conversion-boosting feature Konekt wired directly into the Shopify product templates across the catalog.
4. Vantage – Menswear, Multi-Brand (vantage.lk)
The brand: Vantage is Ebony Holdings' menswear destination, bringing together two house brands — Ebony and Vantage — across shirts, trousers, vests, and underwear, plus a dedicated "CR & FC Centre" collection for licensed sportswear-style pieces.
The build: Konekt structured the Shopify storefront to handle a multi-brand catalog cleanly, with brand-specific navigation for the Ebony and Vantage lines, Google Tag Manager wired in for marketing analytics, Mintpay and Koko instalment options at checkout, and a sign-up discount popup to capture first-time buyers.
5. Strong.lk – Sri Lanka's One-Stop Fitness Shop (strong.lk)
The brand: Strong.lk sells supplements, proteins, creatine, vitamins, pre-workout, and fitness apparel, backed by physical stores in Nugegoda and Mount Lavinia and an online coaching programme. The brand has built a strong local reputation, sitting at a 4.9-star Google rating across 260+ reviews and recently earning a 2026 TopWeb "Qualified" badge.
The build: The Shopify build Konekt delivered includes island-wide delivery messaging with same-day Colombo dispatch, Mintpay and Koko instalment payments on every product, an embedded Google Reviews widget pulling live ratings onto the homepage, and an integrated blog for ongoing fitness content — turning the storefront into a content hub, not just a checkout.
All five stores share one thing in common: they're built, hosted, and supported end-to-end by Konekt — from Shopify theme development to payment gateway integration and ongoing maintenance.
