eCommerce with passion

Our story
With Shopify since 2017
It was 2017: with some vision (and a bit of recklessness...) we decided to bet on this unknown Canadian software that we really liked. It was Shopify, and it was quite different from what it is today.
Over the years we have built over 150 Shopify stores, and the students of our courses have created, with our guidance, over 2,000 more.
Since 2019 we have organized nearly all in-person Shopify Meetups in Italy. Since 2022 we also run events for agencies and developers.
Our milestones
Shopify Partner
We have been working with Shopify since 2017 to create your eCommerce and provide support and consulting services. The challenge, since then, has been staying on the front line and up to date with a product (Shopify) and ecosystem (eCommerce) always in rapid change.
Google Reseller
Since 2017 we are direct resellers of Google Workspace services, which allow our clients and us to work with simplicity and efficiency.
Shopify Expert
Our agency has been certified by Shopify through the Expert program since 2019. At the time there were only three agencies, and we spent those years developing skills and solutions.
Shopify Education Partner
We were the first Italian Education Partners of Shopify in 2020. Our courses on eCommerce Strategy helped over 2,000 entrepreneurs create their own eCommerce.
Shopify Plus Partner
In 2025, with the new partner program, we became first Select and then Plus Partner.
Clients
Our strength has always been our clients, for whom we have built projects, created apps, and devised new ways to solve problems. And from all of them we have learned a lot.
"Tunca has been a great partner to work with! My two interlocutors Giuseppe and Emilio were very professional, skilled and friendly and we've worked together very well for 3 months. I would definitely suggest their consultancy to anyone who wants to set up their Shopify store."
"The Tunca Team provided a great Shopify experience. They were quick in replying to our queries and also in solving any issues. Would definitely recommend. Giuseppe, our assigned specialist, always did his best to satisfy our requests and provided extra support when needed."
since 2018
Training & outreach
Beyond building stores for our clients, since 2018 we have been active in outreach and training: through our editorial platform Strategia eCommerce, the many Shopify Meetups we have organized, and our training platform.
The founder
Emilio Lodigiani is a computer engineer (Politecnico di Milano). He built his first website in 1998, his first web app in 2008, and his first large-scale ecommerce in 2012. He currently focuses on consulting, training and personally oversees Tunca's operations.
