CHICAGO, IL, August 3rd, 2016 ¬ Shopify, a leader in ecommerce CMS platforms, and Codal Inc., a leader in the Chicago software industry, today announced a development partnership that will bring Chicago companies their own Shopify Plus Expert agency.

The official partnership between Shopify and Codal will give Chicago¬based, mid¬market and enterprise level ecommerce companies an advantage when making the switch to Shopify’s new “Plus” platform, by leveraging Codal’s expertise in the field.

“Codal has over 7 years of experience in the e¬commerce industry, and partnering with them has been an excellent experience for Shopify Plus. Their commitment to our platform and company vision has been incredible, and we look forward to continuing to watch them grow in our Plus Expert program.” — Alok Ahuja, Head of Plus Experts
