At PrestaHeroes, the story isn’t about a large agency—it’s about one person with decades of eCommerce experience, relentless curiosity, and a drive to simplify what others overcomplicate.

I’m Fred McLees, founder of PrestaHeroes and a long-time PrestaShop developer who has spent over 15 years helping online stores grow, migrate, and perform better than ever.

What began as a traditional agency model—intake, project build, delegation—has evolved into something far more powerful. Today, I personally lead every project from concept to completion, combining my hands-on experience with advanced AI-assisted development to accelerate production, improve precision, and deliver faster, smarter solutions than ever before.

I’ve managed thousands of migrations, rebuilt stores that others said were “too far gone,” and fine-tuned performance for brands across the U.S. and Europe. From PrestaShop 1.4 to 9.x, from hacked sites to headless builds—I’ve seen, and fixed, it all.

Every line of code, every optimization, every strategy reflects the same philosophy that built PrestaHeroes from the start:
Be independent. Be efficient. Be results-driven.

What I Deliver

• Migrations to and away from PrestaShop that retain SEO, data, and performance integrity
• Custom module development built for maintainability and speed
• Checkout and shipping modernization that improves conversions overnight
• Performance tuning using advanced caching, CDN logic, and AI-based code audits

The New PrestaHeroes Model

No big teams. No middlemen. Just expert-level execution powered by a hybrid of human experience and intelligent automation. The result? Faster delivery, lower cost, and an unmatched level of personal attention to every project.

All project work is planned and tracked transparently on Monday.com—every task, milestone, and deliverable outlined clearly before any work begins. Each project is then quoted at a flat rate, so you always know exactly what you’re getting. No surprises, no hidden costs—just total transparency and security from start to finish.

Whether you’re upgrading an old PrestaShop store, fixing what others broke, or planning a full migration, PrestaHeroes isn’t an agency—it’s me, Fred, working directly with you … supported by advanced AI systems that never sleep.
