It’s not just a slight change. We look vastly different!
We’ve moved to Shopify's reliable e-commerce platform and we’re sure you’ll welcome the change. Shopify’s Parallax scrolling theme allows us to connect more closely to our customers and open up our store to you in a format that maximizes intuitive flow, spacious simplicity and lots of pretty! But most important, it’s easy. So easy.
As you enter our online store, our product categories – coffee beans and coffee equipment – appear as globes, clearly delineated, for you to step into and explore. Click on whichever category you wish to begin with and navigate our sizable inventory (still Canada's largest selection of coffee and coffee equipment) with sweet ease through the use of two upper-screen filter and sort options to fine-tune your search experience.
You can explore our entire catalog in the same way. Our catalog is listed as a menu option at the top of our homepage you can enter by clicking on, or peruse as a drop-down menu divided into the areas of interest you’re accustomed to, including listings for commercial customers and resellers, repairs and replacement parts.
As online shoppers, we’re happy to reassure you that the Shopify platform includes an SSL certificate that uses industry standard 256-bit encryption technology. This is the same level of encryption used by the large banks to keep your information secure.
Our new website will also feature a regular blog dedicated, for the most part, to breaking news in the world of coffee. Check back here for more to come.
Enjoy your new, online Green Beanery experience. If you have any questions or want to pass along your thoughts, contact us here.
Meanwhile, customers at our brick and mortar store, at the corner of Bloor and Bathurst streets, will also enjoy the difference our new e-commerce platform makes. As Shopify's iPad-based, point-of-sale solution saves time and resources, you can expect to move through checkout much faster.
Either online or in-store, we certainly appreciate your business and look forward to serving you better.
All our best,
The Green Beanery Team
