Different Checkout Option According to Customer Location/Proximity/Zipcode

[mdpt]

My client has requested a specific feature, and I am looking for some ideas and recommendations.
My client wants the following to be implement on their site:

- If customer is within X miles of our brick and mortar location, only allow them to request a quote - do not display any prices, do not allow checkout.
- If customer is more than X miles away from our brick and mortar location, allow them to checkout normally - and display all prices normally.

My client's company deals with heavy freight - If the shipping location is within X miles, my client can quote a price and include delivery fee. If the shipping location is more than X miles away, the buyer can pay on checkout, and pick up on their own.

Any ideas on how to accomplish something like this? I have looked into quoting apps, however, adding them will not work unless the site can route users accordingly based on their proximity to our location.

Hi, @mdpt. Thank you for sharing all of that context. I'm not certain if these features would do exactly what you'd like, but I think using Shopify Markets may help you out with this. Using Shopify Markets you would be able to set up automatic storefront redirection for your customers and be able to more precise about which markets you offer certain products in. Customizing how the checkout works is more limited, but let us know what you think after taking a look and we may be able to suggest more!

Thank you for the recommendation, but I don't think that will be a viable solution, as the options are limited to international markets.
Looking for something that will work on a local scale based on something like zip codes or mile radius.

Thank you for confirming, @mdpt!

In this case, since it is a more advanced customization, I recommend hiring a Shopify Partner to work on your store and edit your theme's code. Shopify Partners are highly-skilled designers, developers, and consultants who specialize in building successful brands, businesses, and Shopify stores. Each Partner is reviewed before joining the marketplace, so you know you can trust them to get the job done. You can find more information in the Partner Directory! 

Please let me know if you have any other questions.
