Michael Lamidis — Open-Box Appliance E-Commerce (Cyprus)

Client industry: Retail / E-Commerce — premium open-box home appliances Location: Limassol, Cyprus Live site: https://www.michaellamidisshop.com

Michael Lamidis sells certified open-box appliances from premium brands (Samsung, LG, Bosch, Miele, Siemens) at 30–70% below retail. The business needed more than a catalogue — it needed an online storefront that could carry a premium brand feel, build trust around the "open-box" concept that customers are often unsure about, and turn online browsers and showroom walk-ins into qualified leads. Off-the-shelf templates couldn't handle a multi-category inventory, a self-managed product catalogue, and a lead-capture flow in one coherent system.

I designed and built a custom, full-stack e-commerce platform on Next.js with a self-serve admin back office. The site leads with trust — 47-point certification, 12-month warranty, free island-wide delivery, and 14-day returns are surfaced as primary messaging, not fine print. A category-driven storefront (refrigerators, washing machines, freezers, air conditioning, and more) sits on top of a cart and checkout flow, while a dedicated "tell us what you're looking for" request form converts undecided shoppers into direct inquiries with a promised 2-hour response.

The store is live in production at michaellamidisshop.com, serving the Cyprus market with a complete online presence: catalogue, lead capture, showroom funnel, and a self-managed admin — replacing a brochure-style presence with a system the owner can run day to day.
