# Overview

Lavia helps shoppers find your physical stores. It adds two things to your online store:

- a **store locator**: a map and a list of your stores, with a search by city, postcode or store name;
- a **page for each store**: photos, opening hours, services and directions, at its own address, which search engines can show.

## How it works

You manage your stores in the Lavia app, in your Shopify admin: you add them, import them from a file, and edit their hours, photos and services. Every change is published to your online store in a few seconds.

Your online store shows them through blocks that you add to your theme, in the theme editor. The blocks take your theme's fonts and colors.

- **Merchants**: add and edit your stores, show them on your online store, and follow what shoppers do.
- **Agencies and developers**: set up the blocks in a theme, and read the stores' data.
