Welcome to Associative. We are a dedicated team of innovators and IT professionals based in Pune, Maharashtra, India, passionate about transforming visionary e-commerce ideas into scalable digital realities.
As the digital landscape evolves, standard e-commerce templates often fail to meet the demands of modern brands. That is why we specialize in the “Sanity + Hydrogen” stack—a powerful combination for building cutting-edge Headless Shopify storefronts that offer unparalleled speed, customization, and content management capabilities.
What is Sanity + Hydrogen?
This architecture decouples your front-end design from your back-end logic, giving you the best of both worlds:
-
Shopify Hydrogen: A React-based framework built by Shopify for creating custom, high-performance storefronts. It handles the commerce logic (cart, checkout, products).
-
Sanity.io: The ultimate Composable Content Cloud. It acts as the backend for your content (rich text, images, landing pages), allowing you to structure product storytelling exactly how you want it.
Our Expertise in Headless Commerce
At Associative, our “CMS Mastery” and “Front-End” expertise are the foundations of our Headless Shopify services. We don’t just set up stores; we architect digital experiences.
1. Custom Storefront Development (Hydrogen & React) Hydrogen is built on React, a core competency at Associative. Our team utilizes advanced React frameworks to build lightning-fast, mobile-first storefronts.
-
Technology: React, Next.js, and Hydrogen UI components.
-
Performance: Optimized utilizing server-side rendering and edge caching.
2. Advanced Content Modeling (Sanity CMS) We specialize in Headless CMS platforms, including Sanity. We design custom content schemas that allow your marketing team to build rich product pages, blogs, and lookbooks without touching code.

Integration: Seamless synchronization between Shopify product data and Sanity content.
-
Scalability: Structured content that can be pushed to web, mobile apps, and IoT devices simultaneously.
Why Choose Associative for Your Headless Build?
We operate with unyielding transparency and a client-centric approach. Here is why brands trust us with their complex e-commerce projects:

Mobile: We can extend your Hydrogen store into native Android (Kotlin) and iOS (Swift) apps or Cross-Platform solutions (Flutter/React Native).
