Founded in 2006 by Maxwell Lamb and Chris Mattingly, we’ve grown to become a major player in the eCommerce sector with a proven track record of producing stunning eCommerce sites.

About blubolt

Starting in a ramshackle barn in 2006, we now operate from a Georgian townhouse in the heart of Bath on the famous Queen Square, with a team of enthusiastic and inspired staff, every one of whom we’d trust with our lives, and your business!

As a company, we have leveraged our extensive knowledge of web technologies and retail business practices to develop a slew of eCommerce solutions that provide feature-rich, user-friendly and unique interfaces and solutions to new and old problems.

With a world-wide client base, comprising many well-established brand names and rapidly-growing start-ups, we have invested tens of thousands of development hours into code which is tested, extended, deployed and maintained in order to produce truly scalable, stable and affordable eCommerce solutions.

Despite our technical prowess, we still retain a strong ethos of design and usability, and believe that our work and our platform should not only be functional, but it should be beautiful, and pay our clients the dividends they deserve!
