Fusion5 acquires APAC Shopify partner
From our first project in 2012 to today, Pocket Square has consistently focused on supporting businesses to grow through carefully considered commerce experiences.
After 13 years helping ambitious brands design, build, and scale their commerce operations, we're thrilled to announce that Pocket Square is officially joining the Fusion5 family.
This is a huge milestone for our team and our clients. What won’t change is who we are — the same amazing team, the same passion, and the same commitment to Shopify and digital commerce that’s always defined us.
What will change is the breadth of what we can offer. By combining Pocket Square’s Shopify expertise with Fusion5’s total transformation capability across AI, integration, managed services, security, and a host of top tier business applications, we’ll be able to support our clients in more ways than ever before.
Kristy Brown, CEO of Fusion5 - New Zealand, says that the acquisition will help the systems integrator meet the ever-growing demand for digital commerce.
"The ability to do business online is now a must-have, not a nice-to-have. By bringing Pocket Square into the Fusion5 fold, we can support our local customer community – regardless of their underlying financial applications - with a powerful, right-sized e-commerce solution. Backed by Pocket Square’s team of exceptional professionals, the opportunities for our B2B and B2C customers to grow their revenue through enhancing their e-commerce presence are endless."
Sven Martin, CEO of Fusion5 – Australia, is enthusiastic about the benefits the acquisition will bring to customers.
“On top of our purchase last year of Microsoft partner, Optimum.consulting, the addition of Pocket Square to the Fusion5 family means our customers have ready access to a wealth of expertise in the retail and e-commerce sectors – no matter what their technology environment.”
Brown says that Pocket Square has an incredible track record of delivery success. “This, along with their customer centricity and focus on employee well-being, align strongly with our own culture and approach. They’re a perfect fit for us and our customers.”
Lance O’Grady, Managing Director and Solution Architect, likewise appreciates the strong cultural alignment – and the opportunities the acquisition presents to both its team and customers.
"We know our people and our customers will be in really good hands with Fusion5. There are new career development paths for our people that come with being part of a larger entity, and our customers will be exposed to a wider range of technologies and services. It’s a very exciting and positive time for everyone."
Rhys Furner, Director of Partnerships at Shopify APAC, said:
“We’re thrilled to see Fusion5 invest in Pocket Square’s Shopify expertise. This move aligns with Shopify’s goals across ANZ to expand our partner ecosystem, and deliver local, best-in-class support - helping merchants of all sizes start, scale, and go global on Shopify. By combining Pocket Square’s proven Shopify Plus capability with Fusion5’s strength in enterprise integrations and data, this will accelerate outcomes for both B2C and B2B merchants.”
Pocket Square officially becomes part of Fusion5 on 1 September 2025.
