Shopify development for brands selling across borders.
Custom themes built for phones first, Shopify Markets for new countries, migrations that keep your rankings, and apps when the App Store runs out.
What we build
- Custom Shopify themesOn Dawn or from your own design. Phone-first layouts, a product page that converts, and a cart that nudges order value up. Everything stays editable from the theme editor.
- International selling with Shopify MarketsCurrencies, languages and translations, local domains or subfolders, duties and import taxes, local payment methods, and hreflang so Google shows the right version in each country.
- Migrations to ShopifyFrom WooCommerce, Magento, Wix or a custom build. Products, customers and orders moved, old URLs redirected one-to-one so your rankings travel with you.
- Speed, fixes and conversion workTheme audits, Core Web Vitals, app bloat removal and the small layout changes that turn browsers into buyers on an existing store.
- Custom apps and integrationsWhen no App Store app fits. We build and run our own Shopify app, LedgerBridge, so we know what it takes to ship one.
- Shopify for IndiaGST set up correctly, HSN codes, tax by place of supply, Razorpay payouts matched to your bank, and every order posted to Tally Prime.
Case study
An Instagram-only saree label, now a custom Shopify store
The brand sold handpicked designer sarees through Instagram DMs. Every order meant a conversation, a screenshot and a bank transfer.
We built a custom theme on Dawn with an arched design taken from their brand, then turned their posts into named and priced products in curated collections. On phones, shoppers get a full-width gallery, a sticky add-to-cart bar and one-tap WhatsApp ordering, and the cart shows how close they are to the brand’s free gift.
Finished in under a week, with the store ready to go live the moment the owner removed the storefront password.
Products named, priced and photographed into collections
From first brief to a store ready for launch
WhatsApp ordering from every product page
Custom theme, so it stays fast and editable
How a Shopify build runs
Four steps, a fixed price, and a preview link at every stage.
Brief, references and a fixed quote
Your products, your markets, the stores you admire and the ones you do not. We quote a fixed price and a delivery date.
Design on the theme itself
We design in the theme, not in a mockup tool, so what you approve is what ships. You review it on a preview link on your phone.
Products, payments, shipping, taxes
Catalogue imported, collections built, payment gateways, shipping zones and taxes set up for each market you sell to.
Launch, then measure
Redirects in place, Search Console and GA4 connected, and a short handover so your team can edit without us.
Who this is for
Direct-to-consumer brands selling, or about to sell, in more than one country. Instagram and WhatsApp sellers who have outgrown DMs. Stores on WooCommerce or another platform that want Shopify without losing what they rank for. Indian brands who need GST and accounting handled properly from day one.
What we need from you
Your product list with prices and photos, your brand assets, access to the Shopify store or an invitation as a collaborator, and the markets you want to sell to. If you are migrating, an export from your current platform and a list of the pages that bring you traffic today. See our migration plan and Shopify Markets explained.
Questions brands ask before a Shopify build
How long does a custom Shopify store take?
A store on a custom Dawn theme with up to about 50 products takes one to two weeks. Larger catalogues, migrations and multi-market setups take three to six weeks. The quote states the date.
Do you build on Dawn or from scratch?
Usually on Dawn, Shopify’s reference theme, because it is fast, kept current by Shopify and fully editable from the theme editor. We write the custom sections and styling on top. Fully bespoke themes are possible when the design calls for it.
Will I lose my Google rankings if I move to Shopify?
Not if the migration is done properly. We map every old URL to its new one with a 301 redirect, carry over titles and descriptions, and check Search Console after launch. Nobody can guarantee rankings, but a clean migration keeps what you have.
Can you set up Shopify Markets for selling in other countries?
Yes. Markets, currencies, languages, local domains or subfolders, duties and hreflang are part of our international setup. We quote this as its own fixed-price package or include it in a build.
Can you handle GST and accounting for an Indian Shopify store?
Yes. We configure GST by place of supply and HSN codes, and our own app, LedgerBridge, posts orders and refunds to Tally Prime as balanced vouchers and matches Razorpay payouts to your bank.
