Shopify store design for food and beverage brands

Selling food online is nothing like selling clothes: some products can't take just any shipping method, customers need to know which day their order arrives and allergens have to be clear. We build your Shopify store with shipping zones based on where you can actually deliver, gift baskets and bundles, subscriptions and product pages with well-organized food information.

This is for you if…

  • You sell fresh or chilled products and can't ship everywhere
  • Your customers want to choose their delivery day
  • You put together gift baskets and boxes, especially for seasonal campaigns
  • Your product pages don't show allergens clearly

What we solve in a food store

The Shopify building blocks a food and drink catalog needs.

  • Shipping profiles for chilled and ambient products
  • Delivery zones and local delivery
  • Delivery date in the cart
  • Gift baskets and bundles with Shopify Bundles
  • Allergens and food information in metafields

Chilled shipping and zones

With shipping profiles, chilled products go in their own group, with the zones your cold-chain carrier reaches and their rates. The rest of the catalog can ship anywhere in Spain. If you deliver yourself in your city, Shopify has local delivery by postal code and in-store pickup.

Gift baskets, bundles and subscriptions

Gift baskets and boxes are created with Shopify Bundles, free on all plans, and deduct stock from each product. For coffee, a wine of the month or a weekly box, the Shopify Subscriptions app lets you sell on subscription at the frequency the customer chooses.

Allergens, alcohol and regulations

Allergens, ingredients and nutrition facts go in metafields that the theme always shows in the same place. If you sell alcohol, we add age verification, but what obligations you have when selling food or alcoholic drinks at a distance is something your advisor needs to review.

Guide to selling food and drink on Shopify

How to handle cold-chain shipping, delivery dates, gift baskets and food information on Shopify.

Shipping by product type

An order that mixes cheese and canned goods doesn't ship the same way as one with only canned goods. Shopify shipping profiles let you separate chilled products from the rest, each group with its own zones and rates, which can depend on weight or order value.

If a single order includes products from both groups, Shopify adds up the rates from each profile. That's why we review with you how you actually pack shipments before setting shipping prices.

  • Chilled profile with limited zones
  • Ambient profile for all of Spain
  • Local delivery by postal code
  • Pickup at your store or kitchen

Delivery dates

Shopify doesn't include a delivery calendar at checkout out of the box. We handle it with a date picker in the cart that saves the day as an order attribute, or with a delivery date app when you need to block holidays, cap orders per day or offer time slots.

With Shopify Flow you can tag orders by delivery date to organize fulfillment.

Gift baskets, boxes and subscriptions

Christmas hampers and gift boxes are created with Shopify Bundles, each with its own product page and photos, deducting stock from each product. You can also let customers build their own box by choosing products.

For products people buy on a regular basis, such as coffee, olive oil or a wine club, the Shopify Subscriptions app offers subscription purchase on the same product page.

Food information and alcohol

Ingredients, allergens, nutrition facts, storage and origin go in metafields. That way the information is always in the same place on the product page, and your team loads it from the admin or through an import.

If you sell alcoholic drinks, we add age verification on entering the store or at checkout. What information you must display and what obligations you have when selling food and alcohol at a distance is a regulatory matter: confirm it with your advisor and we make it visible in the store.

Frequently asked questions

What clients ask us most about Shopify store for food and drink.

Can I limit which zones I ship fresh products to?

Yes. Chilled products go in their own shipping profile with only the zones you cover. The rest of the catalog can have other zones.

Can customers choose their delivery date?

Yes. We handle it with a date picker in the cart that saves the day on the order, or with a delivery date app if you need to block days and time slots.

How do I display allergens?

In product metafields. The theme shows them with icons or in a fixed list on the product page, and they can work as collection filters.

Can I sell wine or spirits?

Yes, with age verification on the store. What the law requires for selling alcohol at a distance has to be confirmed by your advisor before launch.

Can I sell to restaurants or shops?

Yes, with B2B on Shopify: catalogs and prices per business customer, up to 3 catalogs on Basic, Grow and Advanced and unlimited on Plus.

Can I set a minimum order for chilled shipping?

Yes. Rates can have order value conditions, and we can show in the cart how much is left to reach the minimum.

Can I sell in my physical store with the same stock?

Yes. With Shopify POS, inventory is shared between your physical and online store.

How do I prepare for the Christmas campaign?

We leave the gift baskets, the collection and the order cutoff messages ready in the theme so you can switch them on when the time comes.
