A freelance Shopify expert for Rajshahi sellers who answers his own phone when something breaks.
I am RH Fardin. I build Shopify stores for Rajshahi sellers as one person, start to finish. That covers the theme, bKash and Nagad checkout, cash on delivery, courier address fields, products loaded and a phone-friendly admin. No agency and no junior practising on your shop. If a variant will not save the night before a sale, you reach the person who built the store. Stores start at 50,000 BDT, 50% to start and 50% on launch. Nothing goes into development until you approve the design.
About 5 years building stores. One senior operator from kickoff to launch, with a design-approval guarantee before the final 50%. Reachable on WhatsApp, not a queue.
+Trusted by 50+ founders, agencies and teams across Bangladesh and beyond.

Rajshahi is a small market, so reputation travels fast. That is the real risk when you hire a freelance Shopify expert in Rajshahi. The work is not impossible. The risk is that the wrong hire disappears. Think of the silk seller off Saheb Bazar or the agro brand shipping mango and date palm goods in season. Or the coaching centre owner whose cousin runs a clothing page. Word gets around about who delivered and who took the advance and went quiet.
In a city this tightly networked, both sides feel it when a hire goes wrong. So I run a one-person operation on purpose and stake my name on every store. With Rajshahi sellers, my next job comes from the last seller I did right.
Most people looking for a Shopify freelancer in Rajshahi are choosing between three bad options without knowing it. Option one is a Dhaka agency. It treats Rajshahi as a remote afterthought, assigns a junior and bakes four salaries into a quote you do not need. Option two is a cheap marketplace freelancer abroad. You spend half the project explaining bKash, cash on delivery and why a parcel leaving Rajshahi is not the same as one leaving Dhaka.
Option three is the 'I build Shopify, 10,000 taka' Facebook post. That usually means a nulled theme and a dead project once your deposit clears. I am the fourth option: one senior person who knows this market, stays accountable and ships.
I am RH Fardin, a solo website designer and developer. I have about five years of building the kind of online stores small to mid-size sellers actually run. With me there is no handoff. The person who plans your store on the first WhatsApp call designs the theme, sets up the checkout and loads your products. I test it on a real mid-range phone. I also pick up when something needs fixing six weeks later.
That is the whole point of hiring a freelancer instead of an agency layer. You get one accountable senior operator. Not a stack of salaries, and not a sales rep who vanishes after the contract is signed.
Pricing is a flat BDT number. It is never a vague 'depends, let us discuss' that creeps up later. Stores start at 50,000 BDT for a real, launched Shopify store. Tiers run 50,000, 90,000 and 1,50,000 BDT as your product range, payment setup and automation grow. A fully custom build starts at 3,00,000 BDT.
Terms are the same for everyone. You pay 50% advance to begin and 50% on launch. You also get my design-approval guarantee: I do not touch development until you sign off on the theme. One more thing I make clear on the first call. My fee is the build. Shopify bills its own monthly plan in US dollars to your card. I show you that real number before you commit, so it is never a surprise.
Here are six clear things you get from hiring one accountable senior person who works with this market. Not an agency layer, and not a stranger on a marketplace.
The person who plans, designs and builds the store is the person you message when it breaks. In a market as connected as Rajshahi, that is the whole deal. No ticket queue, no handoff and no 'let me check with the developer'.
Shopify has no built-in bKash gateway, so I set it up the way that works. It is a manual method with your number and an order ID reference. Or a third-party gateway once your volume justifies the fee. Your buyer pays the way they really pay, instead of leaving at a card field.
A Rajshahi seller ships out to Dhaka, Sylhet and beyond, not across town. The checkout collects clean division, district and thana fields. Orders export in a shape Pathao, Steadfast and RedX accept for a parcel leaving Rajshahi.
You might sell silk and sarees, seasonal mango and agro goods, or supplies for the student market. I build the theme around your product. That means true-colour close-ups for cloth, clean date and variant logic for seasonal stock, and fast browsing for volume sellers.
Most of your buyers browse on a mid-range Android over a Rajshahi mobile signal that drops. I keep the theme lean and the images compressed. The store opens in seconds and does not lose the sale before the product even loads.
Stores start at 50,000 BDT. Most catalogue stores land at 90,000 BDT. Complex or automation-heavy stores are 1,50,000 BDT, and fully custom starts from 3,00,000 BDT. You pay 50% advance and 50% on launch. It is a number, not a 'koto taka, depends' runaround.
The word freelancer scares a lot of Rajshahi sellers, and fairly. Most have heard the story of a paid deposit, a half-built store and a number that stopped answering. That fear pushes people toward a Dhaka agency, on the belief that a company is safer. It is not always. An agency gives you a contract and a logo. Then it hands the real work to whoever is free and treats a Rajshahi client as a low-priority remote account.
The senior who impressed you on the sales call never opens your store again. You are not buying accountability. You are buying the look of it. What you really want is one senior person who will still be reachable in six months, because their reputation with Rajshahi sellers depends on it.
That is how I work, and the structure backs it up, not just my word. The design-approval guarantee means I do not move into development until you approve the theme. I do not ask for a single taka beyond the advance before that. So you never pay for work you have not seen. The 50% on launch means I do not get the rest until the store is live and taking real orders. That keeps me focused on finishing, not on collecting and disappearing.
Because I build the whole thing myself, the handover is real. You get a short, plain-language walkthrough. Your team learns to add products, edit prices and mark orders shipped from a phone, instead of paying me for every small change. With Rajshahi clients, the next one is usually a referral from the last. Vanishing after launch would cost me far more than it could ever save. That is the quiet reason a freelancer can be the safest hire on the list.

Shuru hoy 50,000 BDT theke for a real, launched Shopify store. You get your theme, bKash and Nagad set up the way that works, cash on delivery and courier-ready address fields. Products are loaded, with a phone admin. Common tiers are 50,000, 90,000 and 1,50,000 BDT, based on product range, payment setup and automation. Fully custom starts from 3,00,000 BDT. Terms are 50% advance and 50% on launch. Shopify also bills its own monthly plan in US dollars to your card. I show you that number before you commit.
A fair fear. I do not start development until you approve the design, so the advance only buys work you have seen. The other 50% is due on launch, when the store is live and taking real orders. So I gain nothing by collecting and vanishing, because I do not get paid until you have a working store. And in a market as connected as Rajshahi, my next client is almost always a referral from the last one. Disappearing would end that faster than any contract.
An agency bakes a project manager, a designer, a junior developer and a support agent into your quote. A Rajshahi client is often a low-priority remote account handed to whoever is free. The senior who sold you the project rarely builds it. I am one senior person who plans, designs, builds, tests and launches the store myself. I am also the person you reach when it breaks. You pay for the work, not for four salaries and a sales call. And you are not the agency's afterthought.
It runs easily over WhatsApp and screen share. That covers kickoff, design approval, revisions and the rest. You do not need to take time out of your shop to sit in a meeting. What matters is that you deal with one accountable person the whole way. You are not handing an advance to a faceless agency inbox or a marketplace stranger 12 hours out of sync. You always know exactly who built your store and who to call.
That is exactly the buyer Shopify suits: someone in Dhaka who never walked into your shop and decides on the photos. I build a theme that sells cloth. It has proper close-ups, true colour, weave and length written out, and clean colour and size variants. A Dhaka buyer can finish checkout on a phone in under a minute with bKash. The address form and order export are built for a Rajshahi sender. It also looks polished enough that an export buyer in the Gulf or UK takes you seriously.
The 50,000 BDT tier takes three to four weeks from when the advance clears. That assumes you send photos, prices and descriptions in the first week. Week one is theme design. Week two is your approval and revisions. Week three is the build, bKash and Nagad setup, courier rates and product loading, then real-device testing and launch. I build it myself, start to finish. No junior takes over, and you reach me directly on WhatsApp. That is why the price stays honest and the quality holds.
