A freelance Shopify expert in BD who builds your store, not a brief.
I am RH Fardin, the single freelancer who handles your Shopify project end to end in Bangladesh. I do theme setup, custom Liquid edits and a bKash/Nagad-friendly checkout flow. I also handle the product catalog import, courier integration and launch. No account manager middleman. Stores start at 50,000 BDT, with 50% advance and 50% on launch.
About 5 years building stores in BD, one senior operator, design-approval guarantee before you pay the final balance.

Most Shopify quotes in Bangladesh come from someone who will never open your store admin. They sell, then hand you to a junior who learns Liquid on your dime. Then you ask why the Pathao rate card is not showing at checkout. Now you are talking to a third person who has not read the brief. Hiring a freelance Shopify expert in BD avoids that agency cost.
I work as a one-person Shopify operation by choice. Say a product variant is not syncing and you message me on WhatsApp. You reach the same person who installed your theme and built your product copy structure. I also set up your bKash button and your shipping zones for Dhaka vs outside Dhaka.
There is no ticket queue. There is no "let me check with the developer." I am the developer.
About five years of Shopify work in the BD market has shaped how I scope projects. I have seen which apps are worth their monthly USD fee for a BDT-priced product. I know which themes break the moment you add Bangla product names. And I know where Shopify's default checkout fights how buyers here actually pay.
I price the build at a flat BDT figure and take 50% advance. You don't pay the rest until the design is approved and the store is live.
I take on a small number of Shopify projects at a time, so each one gets proper attention. Maybe your store is better served by WooCommerce or a custom build. If so, I will tell you on the first call. I won't sell you Shopify just because it is faster for me. That is the deal: honest scoping, one senior operator, BDT pricing and work that ships.
Six things change when you skip the agency layer. You hire the person who actually builds your Shopify store in Bangladesh.
Message me directly when a checkout breaks or a discount code won't apply. No support ticket, no escalation chain and no "office hours" excuse on a Friday.
I pick Shopify apps with your monthly cost in mind. Many BD stores bleed 30 to 60 USD a month on apps they barely use. I audit the stack before I suggest anything new.
Shopify doesn't know bKash or Nagad out of the box, so checkout needs custom handling. I set up the manual payment method and instructions block. I also write order confirmation copy that fits how BD buyers send mobile money.
Pathao, Steadfast, RedX or Sundarban: I set up shipping zones and rates. Dhaka, outside-Dhaka and cash-on-delivery orders then calculate correctly. No single flat rate that loses you money.
Free themes only stretch so far. I write the Liquid changes your store needs, like a custom cart drawer message, a size-chart drawer for clothing or a wholesale price block. No forced paid theme upgrade.
Stores start at 50,000 BDT. Most product-catalog stores land at 90,000 BDT. Complex multi-vendor or B2B catalogs go to 1,50,000 BDT, or custom from 3,00,000 BDT. No hourly mystery.
Every BD store owner first asks me "Shopify e koto taka?" The honest answer depends on three things. First, how many products and variants you have. Importing 800 SKUs with size and colour variants is a different job from setting up 40 products.
Second, how custom your theme needs to be. A clean Dawn-based setup with your colours, logo and product photos lands at 50,000 to 90,000 BDT. A fully custom Liquid theme with custom sections, a mega menu and a non-standard cart starts at 1,50,000 BDT and goes up. Third, what your store does at checkout. Adding bKash, Nagad, several courier rates and cash-on-delivery rules is its own setup job, and it takes real time.
What I don't charge for is agency overhead. There is no project manager, no sales commission and no junior salary built into your quote. You get a flat BDT number, 50% advance and 50% on launch. There is a design-approval checkpoint before the final balance is due.
Maybe you also want me to write product descriptions, set up the Meta pixel for Facebook ads or run a launch-week SEO pass. Those are add-ons. We agree on them in writing before work starts, so there are no surprise line items.

An agency puts a project manager, a designer, a junior developer and a support agent on your project. You pay for all four salaries, even if your store only needs one senior person. I am that one senior person. There is no sales call, no second meeting and no handoff. The person who quotes you is the person who builds, themes and launches your store.
Yes, but it must be set up correctly. Shopify has no built-in bKash or Nagad gateway, so I set them up as manual payment methods. I write the instructions buyers see at checkout. I set up your order confirmation email, so the customer knows the exact bKash number, reference and next step. I also add a clear cash-on-delivery option, because most BD buyers still default to that.
Yes. Bulk imports are routine. I prepare your CSV with the correct Shopify columns: handle, title, variants, options, pricing, inventory and SEO fields. Then I import in batches so nothing breaks. For 500+ SKUs with variants, data prep and import take a real share of the timeline and price. That is typically the 90,000 BDT tier. I will quote it honestly upfront.
Migrations are common. I move your products, variants, customers, orders and 301 redirects, so you don't lose SEO traffic. My honest take: if you get under about 50 orders a month and your WooCommerce is unstable, Shopify is worth the monthly USD fee. If you do volume and want full control over hosting and design, WooCommerce often wins. I will tell you which fits better before you commit.
Yes. Launch day is not the end. I offer a monthly retainer of 3,000 to 8,000 BDT, based on store size. It covers Shopify updates, app conflicts, small theme edits, product additions and bug fixes. Or you can call me on demand at a fixed per-task rate. No retainer is required. Many of my Shopify clients run their store themselves and only message me when they need something.
