Most ecommerce stores built in Sylhet only sell to Sylhet. The money is in the buyer who never sets foot in Zindabazar — and your store has to reach them.
I design ecommerce stores for Sylhet sellers who want to ship past the valley: the tea, citrus, shutki, handicraft, and shop goods that a buyer in Dhaka or a probashi in London will pay for and have delivered. Clean product pages, a checkout that survives weak 4G, bKash, Nagad and cash-on-delivery wired in, and an admin you run from the counter. One senior operator designs and codes the whole thing — no agency, no juniors.

When most people order ecommerce website design in Sylhet, they picture a store for their Zindabazar or Bandar Bazar shop — a digital version of the counter, selling to people already in the city. That is the small half of the opportunity. The thing Sylhet actually has that other cities do not is products people want from everywhere: tea from the gardens around the valley, jara lebu and citrus, shutki, agor, shidol, handloom and handicraft, sweets and dry goods that a Sylheti family in Dhaka, Chittagong or abroad will happily pay to have shipped. A store designed only for the walk-in buyer quietly throws all of that away. I design the store so it can take an order from a buyer who will never stand in your shop — which is where the volume and the better margin actually live.
I am RH Fardin, a website designer and developer based in Bangladesh with around five years of full-time work behind me, and I design and build every store myself — the product pages, the cart, the bKash and Nagad redirect, the cash-on-delivery flow, the admin you will run every day. There is no agency in front of me and no junior behind me. For an ecommerce store that matters more than for a brochure site, because a store is a machine that has to keep running: a price changes, stock sells out, an order has to reach a courier today. When one person designed and coded all of it, there is one person who knows exactly why every part works the way it does — and one number to call when it does not.
Selling from Sylhet to the rest of the country is mostly a courier-and-trust problem, and good design is how you solve it. A buyer in Dhaka ordering Sylheti tea has one quiet fear: will it actually arrive, and is this seller real? So the store has to show the outside-Sylhet delivery charge and the courier — Steadfast, Sundarban, RedX, Pathao — before checkout, not after; it has to put a real phone number, return terms and a physical Sylhet address where a nervous first-time buyer can see them; and it has to make paying by bKash or Nagad feel as safe as cash-on-delivery does locally. These are design decisions, not afterthoughts, and they are the difference between a store that takes nationwide orders and one that only ever sells to people who already know your shop.
The pricing is fixed and public. 50,000 BDT for a focused, fast, mobile-first store — a real catalog of roughly 20 to 150 products, a working bKash, Nagad and cash-on-delivery checkout, nationwide courier-ready order exports, a phone-editable admin, and SEO basics at launch. 90,000 BDT for a deeper build with bulk product import, stock control and a richer category structure for a wider range. 1,50,000 BDT for a content-heavy, bilingual store with larger inventory and stronger product storytelling — useful when you are selling something like graded tea or a gift box that needs explaining. Fully custom platforms — marketplaces, subscription tea boxes, complex logistics — start from 3,00,000 BDT. Always 50% advance and 50% on launch, by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer, and you formally approve the full design before that final payment. Your hosting, domain and admin stay in your name from day one.
Six things I build into every Sylhet store — because a store that only works for walk-in buyers is half a store, and these are what let you ship nationwide. All six are standard from the 50,000 BDT tier.
Address and area fields, delivery zones and order exports set up for selling Sylheti goods to Dhaka, Chittagong and beyond — not just a checkout that assumes the buyer is already in the city.
Outside-Sylhet delivery cost and the courier — Steadfast, Sundarban, RedX, Pathao — appear before checkout, so a buyer ordering tea from Dhaka knows the real total and does not abandon at the last step.
All three wired in with a real transaction-ID confirmation step, so a distant buyer can prepay by bKash or Nagad with confidence and a local one still gets cash-on-delivery. The way Bangladesh actually pays.
Real phone, WhatsApp, a physical Sylhet address and clear return terms placed where a first-time buyer in another city can see them — the proof a nervous remote order needs before it goes through.
Tea grades, citrus seasons, shutki types, gift boxes — Sylhet sells things that need describing, not just a photo and a price. Pages built to answer the buyer's question before they message you to ask.
A self-edit admin you update from your phone at the shop, with order exports that paste straight into your courier panel. Add stock, change a price, push an order out — without messaging me first.
Everyone building stores in Sylhet talks about the diaspora as the audience that judges your site — the Londoni relative who decides if you look real. True, but there is a more concrete, more valuable behaviour underneath it that most stores are not built to capture: the probashi who buys from your store and ships to family inside Bangladesh. A son in the Gulf wants to send his parents in Sylhet a box of good tea, sweets for Eid, or a winter order before he flies home; a daughter in London pays for a gift to be delivered to a cousin in Dhaka. He is the payer, but he is not the recipient — and almost no Sylhet store is designed for that split. If your checkout assumes the person paying and the person receiving are the same, you have made that whole flow awkward enough that he gives up and uses a Dhaka store instead. So I design the cart to handle a separate delivery name, address and phone from the payer, accept a bKash or Nagad payment made from abroad, and let him add a note for the recipient. It is a small set of decisions that turns a frustrated probashi into a repeat buyer with hard currency.
This is also why the store cannot be a generic Bangladeshi template dropped on your products. The buyer paying from Dubai at 1am needs the page to load fast on his connection, show the price and total in taka without him hunting for it, and make the bKash or Nagad step feel safe when he cannot see the shop or the goods. The recipient flow has to be obvious, not buried three steps into checkout. And the whole thing has to look credible enough that a man sending money home trusts it with a 4,000-taka order to his own parents. Most stores in Sylhet are built for the easy case — a local buyer paying cash on delivery — and they break the moment the real, higher-value order shows up. I design for the harder case first, because that is the one that actually grows the business: the buyer who is not in Sylhet, paying for someone who is.

Straight answers to what Sylhet sellers ask me on WhatsApp before they hire someone to build a store — starting with the price question everyone asks first.
My ecommerce stores start at 50,000 BDT for a focused, fast, mobile-first store with a real catalog of roughly 20 to 150 products and a working bKash, Nagad and cash-on-delivery checkout that ships nationwide. 90,000 BDT adds bulk product import, stock control and a deeper category structure for a wider range. 1,50,000 BDT covers a larger, content-heavy bilingual store — useful for graded products or gift boxes that need explaining. Fully custom platforms start from 3,00,000 BDT. Payment is always 50% advance and 50% on launch, by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer, and you approve the full design before that final payment. You are hiring one senior operator who does the actual work, not paying agency overhead for a junior build.
That is exactly what I build it for, and it is the main reason a Sylhet store is worth doing properly. The store is designed to take orders from buyers anywhere — Dhaka, Chittagong, abroad — with address and area fields, delivery zones, and the outside-Sylhet courier charge shown before checkout so the buyer knows the real total. Order exports paste straight into your Steadfast, Sundarban, RedX or Pathao panel. The whole point is to reach the buyer who will never stand in your Zindabazar shop, because that is where the volume and the better margin are.
Yes, and I design the store specifically for that, because it is one of the most valuable orders a Sylhet store gets and most stores handle it badly. The cart lets the person paying enter a separate delivery name, address and phone for the recipient, add a note, and pay by bKash or Nagad from abroad. A son in the Gulf can send tea or an Eid gift to his parents in Sylhet, or a gift to a cousin in Dhaka, without the awkwardness of a checkout that assumes the payer and the receiver are the same person. That single flow turns a one-time probashi buyer into a repeat one.
Yes, all three are included at the starting tier. bKash and Nagad are set up with merchant or personal-number flow plus a real transaction-ID confirmation step, and cash-on-delivery is a prominent option with Bangla address fields. The reason all three matter for a Sylhet store is that a local buyer often wants COD while a distant or overseas buyer needs to prepay confidently by bKash or Nagad — you launch able to take both, not a card-only checkout that sits empty in this market.
Through design, not promises. The store puts a real phone number, WhatsApp, a physical Sylhet address and clear return terms where a first-time buyer can see them, shows the courier and the exact delivery charge before checkout, and makes the bKash or Nagad step feel as safe as paying cash locally. Product pages explain what the buyer is getting — tea grade, citrus season, what is in a gift box — so they are not messaging you with basic questions before they will commit. Trust is the whole barrier to selling Sylheti goods at a distance, and these are the specific pieces that lower it.
Yes, and it is one reason I do not just drop your products into a generic template. Sylhet sells goods that a buyer needs to understand before they pay — the difference between tea grades, when jara lebu is in season, what is inside a gift box, how shutki is packed. I build product and category pages that carry that detail clearly, in Bangla and English where it helps, so the page answers the question instead of leaving the buyer to message you. On the 1,50,000 BDT tier this goes further with richer storytelling for premium or gift products, but even the starting store is built to describe, not just list.
