If you are looking for the best Shopify store development company in Chittagong, you have probably already picked Shopify. Now you just want one person who will not vanish after the advance clears.
I am RH Fardin, a senior solo developer who builds Shopify stores for Chattogram sellers. I wire bKash and Nagad checkout in properly, set cash on delivery as the default, and hand orders off to Pathao or Steadfast. There is no agency, no junior and no reseller passing your store down a chain. The person you ask koto taka builds and ships it. Shopify stores start at 50,000 BDT. You pay 50% in advance and 50% on launch, and you approve the full design before any theme work begins.
Senior solo developer with about 5 years of building stores for Bangladeshi sellers. Design-approval guarantee. Direct line. Pay by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer.
+Trusted by 50+ founders, agencies and teams across Bangladesh and beyond.

Here is the catch most sellers learn too late when they hunt for the best Shopify store development company in Chittagong. Shopify is built for a buyer with a Visa card in Toronto. It is not built for a buyer in Agrabad who pays COD or sends bKash from a personal number. Out of the box, Shopify does not support bKash or Nagad. Its default checkout expects a card payment that most of your customers will never make.
So the real test of a Shopify developer here is not who can install a theme. Anyone can do that in an afternoon. The test is who can take a platform built for the West and make it work the way a port-city buyer orders. That buyer messages first and asks koto taka. Then they pay cash on delivery, or bKash on confirmation.
Plenty of sellers reach me after the cheap version went wrong. Someone on Facebook charged 12,000 taka and installed a free Shopify theme. They added a manual payment note that says "send bKash to this number" and then disappeared. The store had no order reference matching and no courier export. Its checkout lost half the carts, because the buyer could not see a COD option until the very last screen.
Or a Dhaka firm sold a 3 lakh package and put a junior on the build. Now nobody answers when the Shopify app subscription charges in dollars. The store flashes a payment hold banner during an Eid sale. The platform is fine. The build around it is where Chattogram stores leak orders and trust.
So here is what the best Shopify store development company in Chittagong means on this page. It means a real Shopify store with bKash and Nagad wired into checkout through a proper local payment flow. Cash on delivery is the default, and you confirm it in your admin. Orders export ready for Pathao or Steadfast, so you stop retyping Halishahar and Khulshi addresses every morning.
The theme is tuned to load fast on a mid-range Android over GEC Circle 4G, and I load a clean catalogue for you. One senior builds it. I have about five years of shipping stores for Bangladeshi sellers, including the import and resell crowd this city runs on. The price is 50,000 BDT, not 3 lakh.
I work alone, and for a Shopify build that is the whole advantage. Shopify hides its hard parts. Think of the Liquid theme code, the manual payment and COD logic, and the checkout settings. Think of the app costs that quietly stack up in USD each month. On a junior-built store, those are the parts that break six weeks in. With me, the person who quotes the price writes the Liquid, sets up the bKash flow and picks up the phone when something needs to change.
If your budget is truly under 50,000 BDT, I will tell you straight. Stay on Facebook plus bKash and save up, or start on a leaner platform. Shopify has a monthly dollar cost of its own. Putting a thin store on it means paying rent on something that does not earn yet.
Here are six things that separate a Shopify store built to take real Chattogram orders from a theme someone clicked together over the weekend. All six come standard from 50,000 BDT. None of them are upsells buried in a bigger plan.
Shopify does not do bKash or Nagad on its own. I wire in a proper local payment flow with order reference matching. That way transaction IDs line up with orders in your admin, instead of living in WhatsApp screenshots at midnight.
Cash on delivery is the default and shows early in checkout, not on the last screen. A hidden COD option is the biggest reason Chattogram Shopify stores lose carts. You can confirm each order right in your dashboard.
I strip the theme of heavy app bloat and tune it to load in under three seconds on a mid-range Android. That holds even in CDA Avenue or GEC Circle traffic. A slow Shopify store looks unserious here, and buyers move on fast.
Orders export ready for Pathao or Steadfast, with delivery rates set per zone. Inside-city areas like Agrabad, Khulshi and Halishahar get their own rate, separate from outside Chattogram. No more retyping addresses into a courier panel every morning.
Shopify and its apps bill monthly in USD, and that adds up fast. I build with the fewest paid apps that do the job. I tell you the real running cost up front, so no dollar charge surprises you after launch.
The person you ask koto taka writes the Liquid theme code and sets up the checkout. There is no handoff from a salesman to a junior. There is no Dhaka project manager you cannot reach when the store needs a fix in the middle of a sale.
When WooCommerce breaks, it breaks on your own hosting, and a local developer can usually dig in. Shopify is different. It is a closed platform that bills in dollars. It hides its checkout behind settings most installers never touch. It runs your payments and apps as a monthly USD cost that never stops. That makes the gap between a senior build and a cheap one wider on Shopify than almost anywhere else.
The 12,000 taka Facebook installer drops a free theme on your store and pastes a "send bKash here" note with no order matching. They leave three trial apps quietly counting down to paid, and move on. Six weeks later an app starts charging. The store throws a billing banner during your Eid rush, and the builder has long stopped replying. That is not a Shopify problem. It is a build problem wearing Shopify's logo.
I build one Shopify store at a time, and I am the only person who has ever touched the theme code. When something needs to change, you reach the person who can change it, not a ticket queue or a junior who left. We talk on the phone about how your buyers order in this city. Most message first on Facebook or WhatsApp and ask koto taka. Then they pay COD on the doorstep or bKash on confirmation. I set up the checkout around that, not around Shopify's card-first default.
You approve the design before I write a line of Liquid. That is the design-approval guarantee. If the homepage and product page do not match what we agreed, you get revisions, not excuses. The price is locked at 50,000 BDT for a focused store. You pay 50% in advance and 50% on launch day, by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer. I also tell you the true monthly cost of Shopify plus apps before you commit, so the dollar bill is never a shock.

Straight answers to what Chattogram sellers ask me before they send the 50% advance on a Shopify build.
Shopify store development in Chittagong starts at 50,000 BDT for a focused store. That gets bKash and Nagad in checkout, COD as the default, up to 30 products, courier export and your own admin. The next tier is 90,000 BDT, with up to 150 products, filters and abandoned cart recovery. A deeper custom theme is 1,50,000 BDT. Custom apps or ERP sync start from 3,00,000 BDT. Pay 50% in advance, 50% on launch. Shopify bills its own subscription and apps in USD, and I tell you that cost up front.
Because they are not selling the same thing. At 12,000 taka, someone installs a free theme and pastes a manual "send bKash to this number" note with no order matching. Then they disappear. Your store loses half its carts because COD is buried. At 50,000 BDT, a senior builds a real store with bKash, COD, courier export, a theme tuned for Chittagong 4G and direct support after launch. If 50,000 BDT is out of reach now, stay on Facebook plus bKash and save up. That is sequencing, not a brush-off.
You heard right. Shopify has no built-in bKash or Nagad. Its checkout is made for cards. That is exactly the work. I wire in a local payment flow. The customer pays your bKash or Nagad and adds the order reference. It then matches the order in your admin. Cash on delivery is the default and shows early in checkout, since most Chattogram buyers still pay that way. So yes, your store takes bKash, Nagad and COD. But only because it is set up to, not out of the box.
Honest answer: it depends on you. Shopify costs a monthly USD fee plus paid apps, billed to a card. WooCommerce avoids that cost. In return you get a hosted, secure, low-upkeep platform that does not crash on your own server during a sale. If you want zero server headaches and can carry the dollar cost, Shopify is a fair choice. If you want to own everything and skip the USD bill, I will build WooCommerce instead. I would rather steer you right than just sell what you named.
Yes, and that is the real test, not a score on office fibre. Heavy apps and a bloated theme make Shopify slow. So I use the fewest apps that do the job, compress images and strip the theme of dead weight. I test on a mid-range Android over local 4G, like a buyer stuck in CDA Avenue or GEC Circle traffic. Over three seconds there means it is not finished. Here a slow store looks risky, and the buyer is gone.
No office visit is needed. I work with sellers across Bangladesh, many in Chattogram, over phone and video calls. Unlike a big Dhaka agency, you talk to the one person who designs, builds and ships the whole Shopify store. No sales rep hands you to a junior after signing. You see and approve the design before any theme code is written. After launch, you reach me directly for any change. For larger builds from 90,000 BDT, we hold the kickoff and final sign-off on Google Meet or WhatsApp.
