Many searches for an ecommerce website development company in Sylhet end badly. A buyer briefs a "company" and gets a freelancer who vanishes. So the real question is who writes your checkout, and whether they pick up when it breaks.
I am RH Fardin, a one-person studio building proper ecommerce stores for Sylhet sellers. "Company" sounds safe. But for a store, what matters is one accountable person who built it and still answers WhatsApp when an order won't confirm. I plan the store and write the WooCommerce and checkout code. I wire bKash, Nagad and cash on delivery so payments reconcile, and I set honest courier zones outside the Dhaka core. Stores start at 50,000 BDT, 50% advance and 50% on launch. You sign off the full design first.

Search for an ecommerce website development company in Sylhet and the results all look like firms. You see clean logos, an office address off Zindabazar, a portfolio page and the word "team" everywhere. Then you message one, and a single person replies from a personal number. That same person turns out to be the salesman, designer, developer and support line all at once.
There is nothing wrong with one person doing it all. I do exactly that. The problem starts when a one-person shop dresses up as a company to feel safe. It takes your advance and ships a recoloured theme. Then it goes quiet the first week a boosted post lands and the checkout throws an error. The word "company" calms you about the one thing it can't promise: that someone accountable will be there when your store breaks.
A store is not a brochure site, and that is why "who builds it" matters more than the logo. A five-page company website can sit untouched for two years and nobody notices. A store can't. It takes bKash and Nagad payments, holds stock and sends orders to a courier. The moment any of that quietly fails, you lose orders in real time, usually on your busiest day.
So when a Sylhet seller asks me for a development company, they don't need a bigger headcount. They need one skilled person who understands how the store earns and doesn't disappear. I have rebuilt enough orphaned Sylhet stores to know the pattern well. The build was rarely the real failure. The disappearance was, with the admin password lost in a Messenger thread with someone who stopped replying months ago.
I work as one senior operator, and on your store I am the company. I run the discovery call, plan the catalogue, design in Figma and write the WooCommerce and checkout code. I'm also the WhatsApp line you message six months later to push an offer banner. I have about five years building stores for Bangladeshi sellers. That includes the boutiques and three-piece houses around Zindabazar and Bandar Bazar, and the Manipuri handloom and shital pati sellers.
It also includes agar-attar brands, Sylheti dry-food and tea brands shipping specialities out, and Facebook-page sellers in Ambarkhana and Uposhohor finally going proper. One person and one thread, from the first message to next season's fix. Sylhet also has a buyer most templates ignore: the family abroad. Londoni and Gulf relatives fund much of the spending here. They can buy a gift for home and pay from overseas, and my store takes that order cleanly.
Pricing is fixed and honest, with no office rent baked in. 50,000 BDT gets a focused, properly built store with about 20 to 30 products, a bKash, Nagad and cash-on-delivery checkout, courier zones and a phone-friendly admin. 90,000 BDT adds up to 150 products, bulk import, filters, stock control and abandoned-cart recovery. 1,50,000 BDT buys a larger bilingual store with a custom theme. A fully custom platform coded from a blank file starts from 3,00,000 BDT.
It is always 50% advance and 50% on launch, by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer. You sign off the full design before I write any code. Hosting, domain, source code and admin logins are in your name from day one. A company that holds your store as leverage is not a company. It is a landlord. If your budget today is under 50,000 BDT, I'll tell you to stay on Facebook plus bKash and save up. That is honest planning, not a brush-off.
Here are six things that decide whether a store keeps taking orders long after launch. They are not the parts that just look good in a demo. All six come standard from the entry tier, never sold back to you as add-ons.
No salesman pitching a senior while a junior you never meet does the build. The person you ask koto taka is the one who writes your checkout. He is also the one you reach when it breaks. One accountable person is the whole point.
A store earns every day, so I build it to survive a busy week, not just look finished in screenshots. I load-test the checkout and check the payment flow before handover. A store that drops orders mid-campaign is worse than no store.
bKash and Nagad are wired to match payments against order numbers. Cash on delivery is the default, because that is still how most Sylhet buyers pay. You stop hunting payment screenshots through WhatsApp at midnight.
Sylhet sits well outside the Dhaka courier core. So the store charges real rates for the city, for towns like Beanibazar and Golapganj, and for Dhaka and beyond. Orders export clean to Pathao, Steadfast and SA Paribahan. No flat fee that bleeds you.
A Londoni or Gulf relative gets a payment path they can use. They buy a gift, pay from abroad, and it reaches the family's door in Sylhet. A manual-bKash Facebook page quietly turns that foreign money away.
Hosting, domain, source code and admin logins are yours from day one. If we part ways, you take the whole store with you. No nulled theme, no borrowed bKash number, and no company holding your shop hostage to keep you paying.
Be honest about where the money goes when a 20 or 40-person agency quotes a Sylhet store. A big part pays for a sales team, a project manager, a few juniors, an office off Zindabazar and a brand name. Only a small part reaches the developer who touches your file. That is rarely their best person. No agency puts a senior on a Bangladesh-price store when a junior protects the margin. So they sell you the senior and hand the build to the junior.
The junior makes the homepage look done, with a slider, nice fonts and a tidy product grid. Then they skip the parts that never show in a demo. That means load-testing the checkout, matching bKash payments to orders, setting fair courier rates outside Dhaka and building a payment path for relatives abroad. The store looks great, then drops orders the first busy week. It turns away every diaspora buyer who couldn't check out. That is how a company that treats Sylhet as a line item fails.
With me, you pay for one senior person working full-time on your store for the weeks it takes. We talk on a call about how your buyers really order. The local buyer messages first, asks koto taka, then pays COD or bKash at the door, not by card. The probashi buyer wants to gift home and pay from overseas. Many orders ship well outside the city. I build the checkout, catalogue and courier flow around that, not a Western template that assumes cards and city delivery.
You approve the design in Figma before I write code. That is the design-approval guarantee, and you never pay the balance for a build you didn't sign off. The price is locked: 50,000 BDT for a focused store, 50% to start and 50% on launch, by bKash, Nagad or bank. I take a few stores at a time, with no 24-hour helpdesk. If you need a 40-seat firm for a multi-vendor marketplace, I'll point you elsewhere. For a Sylhet store, one accountable senior is the safer choice.

These are the questions Sylhet sellers send in their first WhatsApp message. They cover cost, who builds it, and who is still around after launch. Straight answers, price first.
The floor is 50,000 BDT for a focused WooCommerce store. It has bKash, Nagad and cash on delivery live, about 20 to 30 products loaded by me, courier zones and a phone-friendly admin. 90,000 BDT adds up to 150 products, bulk import, filters, stock control and abandoned-cart recovery. A larger bilingual store with a custom theme is 1,50,000 BDT. Fully custom work like multi-vendor or ERP sync starts from 3,00,000 BDT. Hosting and domain are paid separately in your name. It is always 50% advance and 50% on launch.
Judge the store, not the headcount. The real risk in Sylhet is a builder who is gone when you need them, with your admin password lost in an old Messenger thread. Ask any firm who writes your checkout and wires your bKash. Usually it's a junior, as the senior is on a bigger job. With me, the senior you brief is the one who codes, ships and fixes it. I take a few stores at a time, with no 24-hour helpdesk. See my work at rhfardin.com first.
Yes. This is one of my most common Sylhet jobs, and it's the failure my model avoids. First I get you back in control. I recover the hosting, domain and WooCommerce admin so the store is truly in your name. Then I audit what's there. Many cheap builds use a nulled theme or wire the builder's own bKash number into your checkout. Both must be fixed. Then I either stabilise and maintain the store or rebuild it cleanly. Either way, you end up with one reachable person responsible for it.
Yes, and for a Sylhet store that is often where real money sits. I build a payment path a relative in London, Dubai or New York can use, by card or an overseas-friendly checkout. It sits next to the bKash, Nagad and cash on delivery your local buyers expect. So a son abroad can buy an Eid gift, a saree or a Sylheti food hamper for the family's door. A Facebook page with a manual bKash number handles that badly. Good ecommerce website development in Sylhet serves both buyers.
Yes. Most templates get this wrong for Sylhet, because they assume delivery inside Dhaka. I set honest zone rates in the store: one for Sylhet city, one for towns like Beanibazar, Jaintapur or Golapganj, and one for Dhaka and beyond. Orders export clean to Pathao, Steadfast or SA Paribahan, so you stop retyping addresses every morning. The buyer sees a real delivery charge at checkout. You no longer eat the difference on every distant order. Selling from Sylhet means far delivery, so I build the store to charge for it.
No. I work with sellers across Bangladesh, including many in Sylhet, over WhatsApp and Google Meet. Some are owners abroad setting up a store for family back home. A 50,000 BDT store takes 2 to 3 weeks if your product details and photos arrive on time. A 90,000 to 1,50,000 BDT build takes 4 to 6 weeks with two rounds of revision. You approve the design before any code. After launch, you reach me directly. Seasonal trade? Tell me early so the store is live before your busy weeks.
