Headless Commerce

Headless commerce separates the customer-facing grocery storefront from the backend commerce system, allowing retailers to update web, app, and other digital experiences independently while using the same core platform.

Why it matters

A headless setup can help grocery retailers launch flexible shopping experiences faster while keeping ordering, catalog, and fulfillment operations connected through a grocery ecommerce platform. Compare headless and packaged options in our guide to Magento alternatives for grocery.
