KGK Patio Flowers
The flowers were beautiful. The WordPress site wasn't. A local floral design business in the GTA, rebuilt in Next.js.
KGK Patio Flowers is a commercial floral design service serving Business Improvement Areas and businesses throughout the Greater Toronto Area. They work with 30+ clients including the Distillery District, Greektown, Jack Astor’s, Earl’s, and Starbucks.
I maintain the site and ported it from WordPress to Next.js with a focus on performance and feature parity.
What Changed
The WordPress site had slow load times and plugin overhead. The goal was to match everything the original offered while shipping something fast.
The result: 98+ performance score on both mobile and desktop, 100 on SEO.
