Why I‑Finity was approached 

Eat IT Drink IT approached I‑Finity to further enhance their initial website that was developed when the business was starting and establishing its identity. The growth of the business meant that the website needed to scale and support continuous updates that were easy to manage.

The launch of the initial website provided Managing Director, Cliff Gurdin, with the validation that the branding and its visual appeal was resonating well with his customer base. The next focus needed to be on the functionality and the performance of the website to deliver the optimal online experience.

With the technical expertise of I‑Finity, Eat IT Drink IT were hoping to achieve the following:

  • a solution that enabled both design and functionality to work seamlessly together
  • a highly performant website that delivered on page load speed times
  • a website that could be updated easily and quickly
