About us

Local businesses make products people genuinely want to buy. The craftsmanship exists. The demand exists. Yet connecting the two online remains frustratingly difficult. Big platforms promise everything, until they find bigger clients. Agencies build beautiful storefronts, then move on to the next project. Meanwhile, local governments invest in promoting regional businesses with little to show for it. The common thread? Locality gets treated as an afterthought, when it should be the foundation.

We believe where things are made matters. Who makes them matters. And who runs the infrastructure matters too. Entrusting your business to a platform on the other side of the planet, one that will abandon you the moment it pivots to enterprise, doesn't feel right. Because it isn't. The emotional connection to a place, a craft, a community: that's not sentimental nostalgia, it's real value worth preserving.

Shopicci is e-commerce infrastructure designed to be run as a cooperative by human-scale businesses. Your partner in selling online could be your neighbor. Someone who understands the local market because they're part of it, who shares values with the manufacturers and their customers alike. We build the tools; local operators run them. No distant headquarters chasing the next enterprise deal. Just technology in the hands of people invested in their own community's success.
