Ecommerce theme

Hi there,
I am a newbie to all of this. I would like a GP Pro theme for my ecommerce business. THe themes I have chosen are very slow and just wondered if you have a theme that is a little faster? I have tried Prime, Seller and Niche. All have speeds of 60 or less.
Hi there,
You can make speed improvements like you would a standard site by ensuring images are correctly sized & optimized, font variations are kept to minimum and by general optimization:

However, the main issue is Woocommerce is a server hog and for the best performance you would need to ask your host about dedicated woo servers that are designed to deal with its load.
I would begin by looking at the first options to see if improvements can be made before upgrading servers.
