On their newly custom designed website, it is easy to differentiate between the restaurant, catering, venue and event information and to find relevant details about each. In addition, visitors can shop in their online store and easily purchase seafood or other Woodman’s products.

The Client.
Woodman’s of Essex is a historic company that started in 1914. Founders “Chubby” and Bessie Woodman began a clam shack in Essex, MA. Two years later, Chubby invented the fried clam, which has become a cornerstone in New England traditions. Today, the restaurant continues to serve quality seafood. The brand also includes catering services and the Essex Room, a venue that hosts a variety of events.

Full E-Commerce .
We built a Woocommerce online store to allow for customers to order products online including Live Lobsters! There were many rules and integrations to setup within the store for proper shipping calculations but we were able to work through them all with the client to ensure a highly functioning e-commerce solution.
How to Add a Storefront to Your Website.
When we built a restaurant website for Woodman’s of Essex, they wanted to include a storefront to sell gift sets, apparel, and more. But adding a storefront feature to your website can get fairly complex. We recommend using a WooCommerce plugin on your WordPress website because it assists you in creating the necessary pages for a storefront.
