Summary

Pick Morelia if…

Independent apparel labels, artisanal food, home decor and accessories brands that rely on social proof.

Watch out for: It has fewer product showcases than Recife or Toluca, so it is not ideal for catalogs with hundreds of SKUs.

Pick Rio if…

Fashion, beauty and home brands that want an elegant storefront at no cost, with lots of control over the top of the page.

Watch out for: Because it is so popular, Rio stores can look alike — lean on your own photography and fonts to stand out.
