VEXA / ABU DHABI / SHOPIFY
Shopify development in Abu Dhabi.
A new chapter for your commerce.
Vexa designs, builds and connects Shopify stores for businesses in Abu Dhabi and across the UAE. From your first storefront to custom apps, retail POS and business-software integrations, start with the scope your business actually needs.
Built in Abu Dhabi. Made for your business.
I / THE APPROACH
Local understanding. Connected thinking.
A Shopify store is more than a design. It connects your catalogue, customers, payments, delivery and team. We plan those moving parts together, with Arabic and English journeys and the operational requirements of UAE businesses in mind.
Built around your operations
Catalogue structure, stock, order handling and software connections planned together.
Handed over to your team
Practical training and a clear agreement on launch checks, support and future changes.
II / FROM BRIEF TO LAUNCH
How does a Shopify project with Vexa work?
Agree the requirements first. Then design, develop and test against that scope before launch and team handover. Timelines depend on catalogue size, content readiness, migration and third-party approvals.
- 01
Discover
Map the business before the build.
Share your products, current store, target markets and software. We identify catalogue, Arabic/English, payment, delivery and integration requirements.
A defined scope & proposal - 02
Design
Give every journey a purpose.
Plan navigation, collections, product pages and the mobile experience. Review the visual direction and key customer journeys before development.
Layouts & agreed customer journeys - 03
Develop
Connect the moving parts.
Build the theme or agreed custom functionality, prepare products and content, and connect approved providers. API integrations need access and testing with each vendor.
A working store for review - 04
Launch
Test, hand over, keep improving.
Check mobile and desktop, checkout, delivery rules, redirects and key workflows. Train your team and agree the support scope for life after launch.
Launch checks & team handover

Pricing & scopeStore case studiesYour next chapter starts here.
From your first Shopify store to a completely custom storefront. Made for your brand. Ready for your customers.
A store that feels like you.
Shopify store development in Abu Dhabi
Custom design and full Shopify setup, from AED 4,000. Bring your catalogue, navigation, payments and delivery together in one considered shopping experience for the UAE.
- Store design, products and collections
- Payment and delivery configuration
- Launch checks and team handover
How much does a Shopify store cost to build in the UAE?
Vexa’s custom store design and full setup start from AED 4,000. Catalogue size, languages, integrations and custom functionality determine the final quote. Shopify subscriptions, paid apps and provider fees are separate costs to confirm before starting.
Distinctly your brand.
Shopify theme customization & redesign
Bespoke layouts, thoughtful product pages and interactions that make browsing feel effortless.
- Liquid sections and product templates
- Mobile navigation and collection layouts
- Arabic RTL and English layout requirements
Do I need a new store to redesign my Shopify website?
Usually, no. Vexa can assess your existing Shopify theme and redesign the storefront while keeping the same store. We review custom sections, app dependencies and URL changes before agreeing on a theme update or replacement.
Go beyond the theme.
Headless Shopify & Hydrogen development
A headless frontend for experiences that need more control, connected to Shopify commerce behind the scenes.
- Hydrogen or React frontend architecture
- Shopify catalogue and account connections
- Performance, hosting and maintenance planning
When should a UAE business choose headless Shopify?
Choose headless when a separately managed frontend solves a specific design or integration requirement that a theme cannot reasonably meet. Vexa evaluates the added development, hosting and maintenance work before recommending Hydrogen or React.
Every screen. One experience.
Shopify web & mobile app development
Connected web and mobile experiences built around your catalogue, customer accounts and shopping journeys.
- Responsive shopping journeys
- Catalogue and customer account connections
- App requirements and device testing
Does my Shopify business need a separate mobile app?
Not every store needs an app. Start with a usable mobile storefront. A separate app is worth scoping when repeat purchasing, account features or a specific customer workflow justify the build and ongoing support.
Less busywork. More possibility.
Let Shopify work with the systems your business already relies on. Connect the right data, automate the handovers and keep your team in control.
Your systems, in sync.
Shopify CRM & ERP integration in the UAE
Connect Shopify with Odoo, SAP, Zoho, accounting tools and other business applications. Autoline / Keyloop Drive IA projects are scoped around approved API access and vendor permissions.
- Order, inventory and customer data mapping
- Sync rules, error handling and monitoring
- API access and vendor approval checks
Can Shopify connect to Odoo, SAP, Zoho or Keyloop Drive IA?
Vexa scopes these integrations after reviewing your software edition, available APIs and required data flows. Autoline / Keyloop Drive IA work depends on approved vendor access. We define which system owns each record and how updates and failed syncs are handled.
Built for your way of working.
Custom Shopify app development
Turn a specific business requirement into a focused app: custom workflows, admin tools and connected services.
- Business workflow and permissions design
- Shopify API and admin-tool development
- Testing, deployment and support scope
Should I use an existing Shopify app or build a custom app?
Use an existing app when it meets your requirements reliably. A custom app makes sense for business-specific workflows or integrations that existing tools cannot cover. Vexa reviews the requirements first and quotes app development separately from store setup.
A fresh start. A careful move.
WooCommerce & ecommerce migration to Shopify
Move products, customers and eligible order data with a planned migration, URL mapping and checks before launch.
- Products, customers and eligible order records
- Existing URL audit and redirect mapping
- Trial import and launch validation
Will migrating to Shopify affect my Google rankings?
A platform migration can affect search visibility when URLs or content change. Vexa plans redirect mapping, metadata and data checks to reduce avoidable disruption. Rankings cannot be guaranteed, and the scope depends on your current platform and catalogue.
Ready for the everyday. And beyond.
The launch is just the beginning. Give your team the tools, connections and confidence to run a Shopify business in Abu Dhabi and across the UAE.
Online meets your shop floor.
Shopify POS setup & training in the UAE
Connect in-store selling with your online catalogue and inventory. We help configure locations, staff access and retail workflows, with hardware and payment compatibility checked for the UAE.
- Store locations and inventory workflows
- Staff permissions and retail operations
- Hardware and payment compatibility review
Can my UAE retail shop use Shopify POS with its online store?
Vexa can scope a connected retail and online setup, including locations, catalogue and stock workflows. Before implementation, we check suitable hardware, local payment arrangements and plan requirements; built-in card payment hardware is not assumed to be available in the UAE.
From checkout to doorstep.
Shopify payment gateway & shipping setup
Configure eligible payment providers, delivery rules and courier connections around how your UAE customers shop.
- Gateway eligibility and configuration
- Delivery zones, rates and courier workflows
- Checkout, fulfilment and tracking tests
Can you set up local payments and couriers for a UAE store?
Yes. Vexa reviews your payment-provider and courier accounts, then scopes the supported Shopify connection. Merchant approval, provider contracts and available integrations are checked before implementation. Shipping rules and payment testing are included in the agreed setup scope.
Your next market is closer.
Shopify GCC expansion & bilingual stores
Plan regional storefronts, Arabic and English experiences, delivery coverage and market-specific configurations.
- Arabic RTL and English shopping journeys
- Country-specific catalogue and delivery needs
- Shopify Markets or Plus suitability review
Do I need Shopify Plus to expand across the GCC?
Not automatically. Vexa assesses your target countries, languages, payment providers and operational requirements before recommending a plan. Plus is considered when its specific capabilities justify the cost; regional expansion alone is not a reason to upgrade.
Build your team’s confidence.
Shopify training in Abu Dhabi & online
Practical online or onsite sessions in Abu Dhabi, focused on the products, orders and daily tasks your team actually handles.
- Products, collections and order handling
- Staff access and day-to-day store management
- Online or onsite sessions matched to your team
Can you train our team to manage Shopify after launch?
Yes. Vexa offers practical Shopify training for Abu Dhabi and UAE teams, online or onsite by arrangement. Sessions are scoped around staff roles and the actual store, including catalogue updates, orders and agreed operational tasks.
