50+ Biggest Companies That Use Shopify in 2024

By Juhil Mendpara | Updated Jan 5 2024

A common question people have when considering Shopify (or any ecommerce platform) is, ‘Can it scale?’. At Site Builder Report, we answer it like this to help readers visualize just the sheer scale at which Shopify can operate:

  • “Shopify is in a different class from Squarespace when it comes to ecommerce. It powers many large ecommerce stores—including Allbirds, Kylie’s Cosmetics, and MVMT.” — Squarespace vs Shopify.
  • “And with Shopify Plus, Shopify is handling the next generation of online retailers: Kylie’s Cosmetics, Bombas, MVMT watches, and DeathWish Coffee.” — Shopify Review.
  • “Shopify powers large ecommerce stores like Allbirds, Bombas, Kylie’s Cosmetics, etc.” — Wix vs Shopify.

We highlight some big stores that represent Shopify’s mission of making commerce better for everyone. But there are many more—and even more prominent—examples of giant companies using Shopify.

This is the collection of the biggest companies that use Shopify to sell online.

Note: Most of these companies (naturally) use Shopify’s enterprise solution, Shopify Plus.

Another note: This isn’t a list of Shopify stores worth aspiring toward from a web design standpoint. These are just stores of big brands.

Heinz To Home (by Kraft Heinz Co.)

Market value: $49.7 billion

Kraft Heinz is North America’s third-largest food and barrage company and the fifth largest worldwide. Its products are readily available in almost all the popular retail chains. In fact, it’s highly possible that there’s a Heinz ketchup bottle right on your dining table.

However, when the pandemic hit the world in 2020, the brand wanted a new solution to deliver its products to customers who couldn’t afford to go to retail chains. Therefore, they built a new DTC site on Shopify Plus (that too in just one week!!).

Staples (Canada)

Revenue: $14 billion

Staples is an American retail company that sells office supplies, business machines, and tech services. In 2018, a private equity acquisition of the office supply chain split staples into three wings, one of which is Staples Canada. It’s the go-to place for Canada’s small business and home-office market supplies. The renewed leadership and accelerated focus on growth led the company to become one of the biggest success stories in digital transformation.

Initially, they used Opencart as their ecommerce platform. However, they started having issues with basic things like running promotions and updating tools like checkout, search, and payment. Therefore, they moved to Shopify Plus.

JB Hi-Fi

Revenue: AU$8 billion+

JB Hi-Fi is a consumer electronics and home appliances retail company. They have over 300+ stores across Australia and New Zealand, making them the largest consumer electronics retailer in the country.

In 2019, during Black Friday, their old custom-made eCommerce store faced a locking issue when new customers were trying to create their accounts. The problem lasted for almost two hours during the peak season. The brand immediately moved to Shopify Plus as a resolution. As a result, they reduced their page load time by 15% and handled 2x the traffic during the Black Friday-Cyber Monday sale.

Crate and Barrel (Singapore)

Revenue: $1.6 billion

Covid-19 pushed people to buy things online they never imagined buying, furniture being one such product category. Crate & Barrel Singapore, the global decor and furniture brand, catered to this change as they witnessed a big splurge in online transactions.

To deliver on the requests of online buyers, the company partnered with Shopify Plus to offer omnichannel customer experiences. As a result, they increased loyalty sign-ups by 350%, successfully integrated ERP and POS systems, and expanded to new boundaries.

Toggle Section

Kylie Cosmetics

Market value: $1.2 billion

Kylie Cosmetics is the homegrown brand of one of the biggest social media celebrities, Kylie Jenner. Kylie runs the 2nd largest Instagram account in the world, with over 368 million followers.

The brand is known to sell out its collection in minutes. And during sales season, the traffic spike is good enough to crash just about any platform…except, of course, Kylie Cosmetics’ choice, i.e., Shopify. In 2016, Shopify made possible one of the largest product launches in ecommerce history — Kylie Cosmetics attracted over 200k site visitors, and Shopify handled it.

Toggle Section

Skims

Revenue: $275 million

If you thought Kylie’s ‘social media celebrity building a billion-dollar ecommerce brand’ story is the biggest, here’s an even bigger one. It also comes from the same influential Kardashian–Jenner family.

Skims is an underwear and shapewear brand by TV celebrity and social media star Kim Kardashian. Though Kim has “only” 329 million Instagram followers (~ 40 million fewer than Kylie), Skims is valued at almost 3x that of Kylie Cosmetics ($3.2 billion vs $1.2 billion). There’s no comparison, of course — both sell different products after all; I am comparing just for the heck of it.

Fun fact: Alongside Skims, Kim’s new venture Skkn by Kim also uses Shopify for the ecommerce store.

Gymshark

Revenue: $500 million

Started in a small garage in the UK as essentially a dropshipping store, Gymshark is today a leading fitness apparel and accessories brand.

Over the years, they’ve built a massive community of over 5 million social media followers in more than 130 countries. In addition, they also foster an offline community by organizing world tours where Gymshark customer can meet their fitness idols and make purchases in person during events.

As they gained popularity and started getting millions of site visitors to their Magento ecommerce website (which cost them hundreds of thousands of dollars to build, BTW), they quickly realized that the existing solution was not good enough. The website crashed during Black Friday - the most significant sale season of the year, and the company lost an estimated $100,000+ in sales. Gymshark quickly re-platformed with Shopify to start scaling on demand.

Fashion Nova

Revenue: $500 million+

In 2017, Fashion Nova was one of the most googled fashion brands in the world. They were searched alongside the likes of Gucci and Chanel.

One of the reasons why it’s a globally accepted brand is its affordable pricing and clothes available for men and women of all sizes. In addition, the brand is also endorsed by global stars like Kylie, Blac Chyna, and Cardi B.

As a part of their marketing campaigns, they ask customers to post pictures wearing their clothes on their social media profiles. In return, Fashion Nova picks the best photographs and features them on its homepage.

Fun fact: Fashion Nova recently hit 100 million orders on Shopify!

Shopify ran ad about Fashion Nova hitting 100 million orders, and Shopify president tweeted about it

Revenue: $270 million

Allbirds is an American footwear and clothing brand. Within the first two years of its inception, the company clocked a billion-dollar valuation.

The brand sells its products exclusively on its Shopify-powered website and in its retail stores (through Shopify’s POS).

In short, Shopify allowed them to become the omnichannel retailer they wanted to be. Travis Boyce, the Head of Global Retail Operations at Allbirds, praised Shopify for it: “With Shopify Plus, we have our point-of-sale and ecommerce systems under one umbrella, which serves our ultimate purpose of being an omnichannel retailer and viewing the customer as one customer—no matter where they shop with us.”

Bombas

Revenue: $237 million+

Bombas sells high-quality socks, t-shirts, underwear, and more through its Shopify Plus website. Among other things, the brand is known for supporting the underprivileged. For every product they sell on their website, they donate a similar clothing item to homeless people in the US. They’ve donated over 50 million clothing items to date—commendable.

The brand gained massive popularity after it appeared on the American business reality TV show Shark Tank, where it raised $200,000.

Before Shopify, Bombas ran on Magento. Unfortunately, their Magento website crashed twice—once during their Shark Tank episode premiere and then again when the episode re-ran. Why? Simply because they couldn’t scale on demand. After moving to Shopify, they solved scaling issues and saved close to $100,000 in platform costs.

Simba Sleep

Revenue: $100 million

Simba is a UK-based mattress company now selling in 35 countries. They launched in 2015 and have since made their way into retail giants like John Lewis.

Of course, it’s no fluke that Simba became globally successful. People at Simba have always carefully crafted their expansion strategy.

For instance, Simba identified two additional markets after the UK: France and Germany. They first understood the cultural idea of sleep in each nation. Then, they used their Shopify Plus backend to open different storefronts in these nations. Different storefronts meant independent store offerings — with their own messaging, images, and localized checkout systems.

Toggle Section

Leesa

Revenue: $150 million

A year before Simba Sleep was founded, in 2014, David Wolfe and Jamie Diamonstein launched Leesa to sell high-quality mattresses online. Their first successful product was a “Universal Adaptive Feel” mattress. Since then, the company has created many award-winning mattresses.

The story of Leesa choosing Shopify Plus as their ecommerce platform is interesting and worth knowing if you are thinking of custom building your store.

Wolfe and the team initially custom-developed an ecommerce platform for Leesa, but just a few months before launching, they scrapped the custom-built site. They had burnt a lot of cash developing it and realized they’d be burning a lot more fixing bugs. Here’s what Wolfe said to Shopify: “Without Shopify, we would’ve run out of money before launching. Instead of selling mattresses we would have been fixing bugs but Shopify fixed the bugs for us.”

Rosenberg came up with the idea of giving free samples online. But it had its own challenges.
