Overview
Chef Miau makes natural, ready-to-serve cat food, cooked in the Basque Country and packed in glass jars, sold on a monthly subscription.
The team came to us before launch with mockups, copy and professional photography, and a tight deadline. We met the next day, confirmed the plan, and started building.
The challenge
The brief was a conversion-focused store on a premium theme, where a single call to action leads into a short quiz. The quiz asks for the cat's name, weight and activity level, and recommends a monthly quantity across three recipes.
From there, customers subscribe, with the freedom to pause, skip or cancel. The store also had to work for Spain specifically: Spain-only shipping through the brand's logistics partner, Spanish payments, Google Analytics and the Meta Pixel, and cookie consent that meets GDPR and Spain's data protection law (LOPD).
The approach
- 01Ran a discovery call with the founding team the day after their first message, and confirmed feasibility and scope in writing the same evening.
- 02Built the store from their mockups on a premium theme, with the quiz as the main path into a subscription.
- 03Used Shopify's own subscriptions, so customers manage their plan from their account without another monthly app fee.
- 04After launch, tested the full subscription journey with real test orders, and worked with Shopify support until the customer portal behaved exactly as it should.
- 05Listened to early customer feedback: shoppers wanted to go straight to a product, so the next phase makes the product page the main path and keeps the quiz as a helper.
