Ecommerce
Ecommerce Website Development in Dubai & the UAE
We build ecommerce that is designed to sell, not just to launch. That means the catalogue structure fits how your customers actually shop, the checkout carries the payment methods UAE buyers expect, and your stock, pricing and orders stay in sync with the systems that run your business.
Since 2010 we have delivered more than 2,000 projects across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Bahrain, India and beyond, including storefronts for TUMI, Samsonite, American Tourister, Jawhara Jewellery and Coral Perfumes.
What the engagement covers
The scope is set against your situation rather than a package. These are the components we most often build into it.

- Bilingual Arabic and English catalogues with genuine RTL design
- Migration from legacy platforms without losing SEO equity or order history
- Conversion rate optimisation as an ongoing discipline, not a one-off audit

How it runs
How the work is sequenced.
The order matters more than the individual activities. Doing these in the wrong sequence is the most common reason engagements cost more than they should.
- Step 01
Diagnostic
We establish what is actually constraining the result. It is frequently not what the brief assumed, and finding that out first is what keeps the budget honest.
- Step 02
Scope and case
A written scope with the commercial case stated: what it costs, what it should return, and what we would leave out.
- Step 03
Delivery
Built in phases so something useful goes live early rather than everything arriving at the end.
- Step 04
Measure and iterate
Reported against the commercial number the engagement was commissioned to move, monthly, with the things that did not work stated plainly.

Growth model
We would rather be paid for the growth than the hours.
For ecommerce clients we can work on growth-share: an agreed baseline from your trailing performance, then a percentage of the incremental sales we create above it. No fixed retainer. If your revenue does not grow, we do not earn. It changes what we recommend, because we carry part of the risk of being wrong.
Questions
Questions about ecommerce development.
How much does an ecommerce website cost in Dubai?
A focused Shopify build for a single market typically starts around AED 18,000–35,000. Multi-market rollouts, B2B pricing engines, ERP integration and custom platforms scale from there. We scope against your catalogue and operations rather than quoting a package price, and we tell you honestly when a simpler build will do the job.
How long does an ecommerce project take?
A well-scoped Shopify storefront is usually 4–8 weeks. Complex catalogues, ERP integration, B2B pricing or multivendor marketplaces run 3–6 months. We work in phases so you launch and start selling before every feature is complete.
Do you work on Shopify or custom platforms?
Both, and we give you a straight recommendation. Shopify is the right answer for most UAE retailers because the checkout converts and the ecosystem is mature. We build custom when catalogue complexity, B2B logic or ERP coupling genuinely demand it, not by default.
Can you integrate with our existing ERP?
Yes. We integrate with SAP, Odoo, Zoho, Tally and Dynamics regularly, syncing stock, pricing, customers and orders. Where a documented API does not exist we build a middleware layer with scheduled reconciliation.

Shopify is the fastest route to a store that converts, provided it is built properly. A theme installed from the marketplace and filled with products is not a Shopify build; it is a placeholder that will hit its ceiling within a season.
