Most stores near GEC Circle look done. The test is not the homepage — it is whether the checkout still takes a bKash payment at 10pm during your sale, and whether the order reaches the courier without you retyping it.
I am RH Fardin, a solo website designer and developer. As an ecommerce website development company in GEC Chittagong, I build the part most outfits skip: the working machine behind the pretty front — bKash and Nagad reconciled against order references, cash-on-delivery as the default, courier exports for Pathao and Steadfast, and a catalogue you actually run from your phone behind the counter. I design, code and ship every store myself. From 50,000 BDT, 50% advance and 50% on launch, full design approved before final payment.
One senior solo developer, ~5 years building stores for Bangladeshi sellers. Design-approval guarantee in writing. You brief one person and that person writes the code — direct on WhatsApp, paid by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer.

The stores that land on my desk from GEC sellers almost always have the same wound: the front looks fine and the back is hollow. A shop near GEC Circle paid 25,000 taka, got a clean product grid and a hero slider that demoed beautifully, then discovered the holes one at a time after launch — the bKash button just opens a number with no order matching, so payments and orders live in two separate chaoses; the cash-on-delivery form has no Bangla address fields and no area zoning,
so every order gets retyped into the Steadfast panel by hand each morning; the catalogue can only be edited by emailing the developer, who has gone quiet. That is the difference between ecommerce design and ecommerce website development in GEC Chittagong BD. The first makes a screen. The second makes a store that runs every day without you babysitting it.
Why this keeps happening around GEC specifically is structural. GEC Circle holds Chattogram's densest stack of web shops — Sanmar Ocean City, Finlay Square, the towers down toward 2 No. Gate and Wireless More, a development desk on what feels like every other floor.
The economics force a cut corner: at a 50,000-taka price the only way an office with rent and salaries makes margin is to put the visible work (the design) where the client looks and starve the invisible work (the checkout logic, the courier handoff, the admin you self-run) where the client cannot judge it until the first real rush. So you end up with a store that passes the demo and fails the Eid sale.
The development is exactly the part that does not show on a signboard, which is exactly the part those shops underbuild.
So on this page, ecommerce website development company in GEC Chittagong means the engineering, stated concretely, not the slogan. A real WooCommerce build: bKash and Nagad with a transaction-ID step that reconciles each payment against its order reference, so you stop cross-checking screenshots against your order list at midnight; cash-on-delivery built as the default with Bangla address fields and area selectors mapped to how Pathao, Steadfast and RedX actually zone Chattogram — GEC, Khulshi, Nasirabad, Halishahar, out-of-city; a courier-ready CSV export so your morning is a single upload,
not an hour of typing; a self-edit admin you run from your phone at the counter; and a checkout load-tested against a campaign-level spike before handover, not a clean score on my own fibre. The build is the product. Anyone off GEC Circle can make a grid look finished.
When you hire me there is no sales desk and no junior — I am the discovery call, the catalogue structure, the Figma design, every line of the checkout code, and the person on WhatsApp six months later when a payment does not confirm on a busy evening. One senior operator, roughly five years deep in stores for Bangladeshi sellers.
Pricing is fixed and plain: 50,000 BDT for a focused store, 90,000 BDT for deeper stock with bulk import and stock control, 1,50,000 BDT for a larger bilingual build, from 3,00,000 BDT for a fully custom platform — always 50% advance and 50% on launch, with the full design signed off before that final payment is due. And if your budget is honestly under 50,000 BDT today, I will tell you to stay on Facebook plus bKash and save up.
That is sequencing, not a brush-off.
Six things that separate an engineered store from a good-looking theme that quietly leaks orders. All six are standard from the entry price, not upsells buried in a premium tier, and all of them live in the backend a GEC shop's last developer skipped.
bKash and Nagad with a transaction-ID step that matches each payment to its order reference. No more cross-checking WhatsApp screenshots against your order list at midnight, wondering which one paid.
Cash-on-delivery built as the default with Bangla address fields and area selectors zoned the way Pathao, Steadfast and RedX actually split the city — GEC, Khulshi, Nasirabad, Halishahar and out-of-city all rated separately.
Orders export to a courier-ready CSV you upload once, instead of retyping every address into the Steadfast or Pathao panel by hand. The build is meant to save your time, not add a daily chore.
Checkout and product pages load-tested against a campaign-level burst before handover, not one quiet visitor on fibre. A boosted post should drive orders, not a 500 error on your best sales night near GEC.
A self-edit admin built to work from your phone behind the counter — add a product, change a price when the supplier moves, switch a banner before you post. No support ticket, no per-edit fee.
WooCommerce admin, hosting account and domain all in your own name, with the code handed over on launch in one document. No nulled theme, no temporary bKash number, no GEC developer who can hold the store hostage.
Almost every broken GEC store I am called to rescue failed in the same four places, and a buyer can check all four on the first call instead of after launch. One — payment reconciliation: ask "when a customer pays bKash, does the order show as paid against that transaction automatically, or do I match it by hand?" If it is by hand, you bought a button, not an integration.
Two — the courier handoff: ask "can I export confirmed orders as a CSV I upload to Pathao or Steadfast, or do I retype each address?" Retyping is hours a week you will never get back. Three — the admin: ask "can I add a product and change a price from my phone myself, or do I email you?" If you have to email, you do not own the store, you rent the developer.
Four — load: ask "is the checkout tested against a campaign-level spike before handover?" A store that only ever saw one quiet visitor will meet its first crowd as a 500 error during your sale.
I build to pass all four because I write the backend, not just the screen. Payments reconcile against order references; orders export clean to your courier; the admin is yours to run from behind the counter; and the checkout is load-tested against a real burst before I hand it over — not a green score on my own connection.
That is the whole reason a one-person studio can out-deliver a named GEC development house on a store like this: there is no office margin to protect by quietly starving the invisible work, because there is no office. Design is approved in Figma before I write a line of code — the design-approval guarantee — and you never owe the second half for a build you did not sign off.
Price is locked at 50,000 BDT for a focused store, 50% on signing and 50% on launch, paid by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer. For a GEC seller who already moves real volume over the counter, ecommerce website development GEC Chittagong BD worth paying for is not the loudest desk on the floor — it is the one senior who has shipped this exact machine before and will answer when it needs a fix.

The questions GEC sellers actually send me on WhatsApp before the 50% advance — the backend ones, not the brochure ones. Straight answers.
The floor is 50,000 BDT for a single-vendor WooCommerce store with bKash, Nagad and cash-on-delivery live and reconciling, up to 30 products loaded by me, courier-ready CSV exports and a self-manage admin. The next tier is 90,000 BDT — deeper stock with bulk import, stock control, filters and abandoned-cart recovery. A larger bilingual store with a custom theme and Pathao API runs 1,50,000 BDT. Anything fully custom — multi-vendor, ERP or POS sync, custom checkout logic — starts from 3,00,000 BDT.
Hosting and domain are paid separately to the provider in your own name. Payment is always 50% advance and 50% on launch by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer. This is a senior solo development price, not a GEC office rate with rent and a sales desk baked in.
It depends on what is underneath. If your last build is a real WooCommerce store on a clean theme and the breakage is the integration work — bKash not reconciling, COD with no zoning, no courier export, an admin you cannot self-run — I can often rebuild the backend and keep the design you already paid for, which is cheaper than a full restart. If it is a nulled theme on hosting the old developer controls, there is nothing safe to keep and a fresh 50,000 BDT build is the honest answer. I will tell you which on the first call after I see it, not after I have your advance.
Design is what the buyer sees — the layout, the photos, the product grid, the colours. Development is the machine behind it — the checkout logic, the bKash and Nagad reconciliation, the COD zoning, the courier export, the admin you run yourself, the load handling for a boosted post. Most GEC shops sell a 50,000-taka job by spending the budget on the design, where you can judge it, and starving the development, where you cannot — until the first Eid rush exposes it. I do both, and I weight the budget toward the development, because the design does not take the order. The checkout does.
That is the actual benchmark, and most GEC store failures happen here. The cause is usually a bloated page-builder theme, unoptimised images and a checkout never tested under load. I build on a lean theme with no heavy builder, auto-convert product images to WebP, and load-test the checkout against a campaign-level burst before handover — not one quiet visitor on my fibre. I also size your hosting in your own account for the spike you actually expect near GEC. A boost should send orders to a store that holds, not throw a 500 error on your best night.
You run it yourself. The admin is built to work from your phone — add a product, edit a price the moment your supplier's price moves, swap a banner an hour before you post, mark COD orders confirmed for the morning courier upload. You get a one-hour training call and written Bangla-friendly documentation on launch. There is no per-edit fee and no support ticket for daily running, which is the whole point of owning the development instead of renting a GEC developer who charges 2,000 taka to change a price.
I am a Bangladesh-based developer who works with sellers right across Chattogram — GEC, Khulshi, Nasirabad, Agrabad, 2 No. Gate — almost entirely over WhatsApp, call and screen-share. I will not claim a Sanmar-area office I do not have; that fake overhead is exactly the cost I cut so the development budget goes into your store, not a signboard. You see and approve the full design in Figma before I write a line of code, and after launch you reach me directly when a payment misbehaves — not a ticket queue, not a junior who left the GEC shop two months ago.
