La Portegnais born from the spirit of travel and craftsmanship. Founded 10 years ago as an online store, La Portegna opened its first store in Madrid a year later to sell its high quality handmade leather goods. Today, the Spanish brand has stores in London and Madrid, and is about to open a store in Mallorca.With products handmade by artisans in Ubrique, the brand has gained global media attention.
By switching from Vend to using Shopify for both its online and in-person selling, La Portegna has enjoyed:
- A unified view of business performance across all sales channels
- Significantly less time spentmanaging inventory
- A 20% increase in average order value
Challenge: using different systems to manage online and in-person sales
La Portegna was growing as a brand, both online and offline. To power its sales on multiple channels, the brand was using Vend POS to handle in-person selling in addition to Shopify for itsecommerce platform.
As a result, the important information the brand needed was scattered in different systems. To get a holistic, unified snapshot of La Portegna’s sales, teams needed to go through the time-consuming process of exporting data and building spreadsheets manually.
Using multiple systems to manage our online and physical stores was frustrating. Managing all our sales channels from Shopify simplifies how we run our business and makes it easy to view data and compare channel performance–from conversion rates and sales volume to customer value and beyond.

In November, 2020, La Portegna started using Shopify POS to manage its ecommerce and two physical stores from one platform. This immediately simplified business operations and made it easier to manage both its retail locations and online store.
The team also appreciatesShopify’s reports, which centralize key information and make it easy to discover and capitalize on opportunities—whether in relation to online sales, the London store or the Madrid store.
