What an established Motijheel trader is actually buying
You already have a real business. The store just has to prove it in five seconds.
Here's the gap I see again and again when I work as an ecommerce website design company in Motijheel. The shop is real. It is a proper trade off Dilkusha, Shapla Chattar or the Baitul Mukarram market. Sometimes there are decades of supplier relationships and steady cash flow behind it. But the online presence is a Facebook page with a phone number in the bio and prices buried in comment replies.
So when a younger buyer in Uttara or Bashundhara finds you, they can't tell if you are an established firm or someone reselling from a bedroom. You lose the order, but not because your product is worse. You lose it because the established business never looked established online. An ecommerce store fixes exactly that. It puts your catalogue, your prices and a real checkout in front of the buyer, with the weight your offline name already has.
I'm not a company, and for this job that's the point. When you hire a company here, a salesman wins the project over cha. Then a junior you'll never meet builds your store on a template. With me, the person who reads your first WhatsApp message does all of it. I map the catalogue, design every screen in Figma and code the storefront. I connect the payment and the courier, and I ship it.
I am one senior operator with about five years building sites and stores for Bangladeshi businesses. That includes traders, wholesalers moving into retail, importers, shops and service firms across Dhaka. When an order fails at checkout on a Friday night, you message me, not a ticket queue.
The money explains why a solo operator beats the agency on a Bangladesh-price store. A real ecommerce company in Motijheel pays office rent off Motijheel C/A, account managers and salaries between projects. Then it adds a margin on top. To protect that margin on a 50,000 to 1,50,000 taka store, the real building quietly goes to the cheapest hands. That's not an insult. It's arithmetic.
I carry none of that overhead, so your money buys the store itself, not the office it was sold from. You're not getting a smaller team. You're getting the senior person the company would have hidden behind the team.
Pricing is fixed, and I'll say it before you ask. 50,000 BDT gets a focused store with a clean catalogue, a working cart and a checkout that takes bKash and Nagad. 90,000 BDT gets a fuller store with more product structure, categories and search, courier setup and proper ecommerce SEO. 1,50,000 BDT gets a larger catalogue with deeper filters, customer accounts or light bilingual pages.
Fully custom builds start from 3,00,000 BDT. It is always 50% advance and 50% on launch, by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer. And the full design is approved before a single line of code is written.
