By Koala TeamOctober 12, 2026
Cookware, utensils and tableware stores lean on the same core apps as most of Shopify, with a few telling additions. Below are the apps Shopify kitchen and dining stores run most, plus the ones that turn up more often in kitchen than across Shopify as a whole.
Updated October 12, 2026. Part of the Shopify Niche Index, refreshed every Monday from Koala's own store data.
The most used app among Shopify kitchen stores is Judge.me Product Reviews App, installed on 37% of them. The app that sets the niche apart most is Releasit COD Form & Upsells: it runs on 3.4% of kitchen stores against 1.9% of all Shopify stores, so it is 1.8x as common here.

A stack close to the Shopify average
Kitchen has one of the flattest signature tables in the index. No single tool defines the niche the way fitment search defines auto parts or age gates define drinks, so the most used apps carry more weight here: a strong reviews app and solid email flows will do more for a cookware store than any niche add-on.
The differences that do show up are still useful. Affiliate apps and affiliate network connections appear more than average, which suits products that bloggers and review sites recommend. Product options apps help with sets, sizes and finishes. Review importers, supplier apps and cash-on-delivery order forms point to a group of stores that dropship, and a shopping feed app sits on the list for stores that sell through Google Shopping.
Use the top Shopify kitchen stores ranking to see which of these models the biggest stores follow. A brand that makes its own cookware and a store testing gadgets from a supplier both land in this niche, and they need very different stacks.

Questions people ask
What apps do Shopify kitchen stores use most?
The most installed are Judge.me Product Reviews App (37% of stores), Klaviyo: Email Marketing & SMS (32% of stores) and Customer Privacy (26% of stores).
Which apps are most typical of Shopify kitchen stores?
Measured against all Shopify stores, the most over-represented apps are Releasit COD Form & Upsells (1.8x), Faire: Buy Wholesale (1.7x) and King Product Options, Variants (1.5x). The figure is how many times more common the app is in this niche than across Shopify overall.
How this list is built
An app counts for a store when Koala detects it on that store. "vs all Shopify" divides the app's share of this niche by its share of every live Shopify store we track, so 1x is average. Apps that run on more than half of all stores, such as Google & YouTube, are left out because they say nothing about a niche.
Koala models every store's numbers from public signals any visitor's browser can already see, sampled over time, never from a store's private dashboard. Stores are grouped into niches by what they sell, using Shopify's own product categories, and a store can sit in up to three niches. Every figure is an estimate meant for comparing stores, so the ranking is more reliable than any single number.
