HUB 24 Stores is an online and offline retail brand that began operations in April 2021 with a strong commitment to becoming one of the leading shopping destinations in Nigeria and Africa. The platform offers a diverse range of products through an easy to use and visually appealing interface, combining the convenience of digital commerce with the reliability of physical retail presence.
The Challenge
Before Kastech’s involvement, HUB 24 operated on a limited digital framework that could not support its vision for expansion and seamless customer experience. The company required an integrated shopping platform with advanced product management, fast content updates, and an engaging user interface. The challenge was to create an e-commerce solution that would balance aesthetics, functionality, and security while maintaining exceptional performance and customer trust across both online and offline operations.
What did Kastech do
Kastech developed the HUB 24 Stores platform using the KAS Framework v2.50 with WordPress v6.1 for dynamic content management and flexibility. The system was engineered to provide a smooth, responsive shopping experience and efficient backend management.
Key features implemented include:
- Online shopping system with advanced UX and UI optimization for easy navigation
- CRUD functionalities for product, publication, and category management
- Featured homepage slider and customizable front page sections
- News blog and publication area for brand updates and promotions
- Video gallery and YouTube playlist integration for product showcases
- Advanced grouped gallery with portfolio sorting for organized display

The Results
