Forge Safety Personnel

BigCommerce

Forge Safety Personnel is an eCommerce retailer serving first responders, public safety professionals, and emergency service organizations with mission-critical safety equipment, apparel, and duty gear. They needed a modern, high-performance online store that reflected their commitment to quality, simplified product discovery, and delivered a seamless shopping experience. We designed and developed a fast, responsive BigCommerce website focused on performance, scalability, and an intuitive customer experience. The company was rebranded from Great Lakes Upfitting in 2024 and continues to serve emergency professionals with a growing catalog of trusted products.

The new online store was built to organize an extensive product catalog, improve navigation, streamline the purchasing journey, and provide a scalable foundation for long-term eCommerce growth.
