What Baggy does

Baggy is a privately held B2B web development studio operating as Baggy, LLC, headquartered in Milwaukee with a distributed team of approximately six employees across the United States (Milwaukee), the United Kingdom (Leeds), Spain (Barcelona), and Canada (Montreal). The firm designs and builds custom digital storefronts and user experiences for direct-to-consumer and e-commerce brands, specializing in the Shopify ecosystem. Baggy collaborates directly with brand teams and a roster of creative design partners—acting as the technical execution layer that translates design intent into production-grade websites.

The studio delivers work across four service tiers: Scoping (technical strategy and project definition), Strategy (performance, accessibility, and digital carbon footprint audits), Build (full custom frontend and CMS development), and Support (ongoing maintenance, app integrations, and conversion optimization). Its core technology stack spans Shopify OS 2.0 in both traditional Liquid themes and decoupled headless configurations, with Vue.js, Next.js, Tailwind CSS, and Sanity CMS for content management. Accessibility-first development—grounded in WCAG guidelines, semantic HTML, ARIA attributes, and screen-reader optimization—is treated as a foundational practice rather than a retrofit.

Baggy's revenue model is professional-services based with quote-based engagement pricing that is not publicly disclosed. The disclosed customer base spans D2C brands across apparel (Baggu, Comme Si, Pilgrim), food and drink (Graza, Gelée, Noma Projects, Faccia Brutto), skincare (Eadem, Vacation), home goods (Quarters, In Common With), haircare (Blake Brown), and jewelry (Prounis), with the majority classified as startups and one (Baggu) as enterprise. Demand is generated through a portfolio-driven website (baggy.studio), educational content marketing on accessibility and headless commerce, organic social presence on Instagram and LinkedIn, and a referral pipeline anchored by named design partners including Ctrl+Alt+Del, Gander, RoAndCo, and Lotta Nieminen. No external funding has been disclosed; the company appears bootstrapped and founder-controlled.
