Half the Gulshan brands I talk to are already selling — on Instagram, through DMs, with a bKash number in the bio. The store is the part nobody quotes cleanly. Say "Gulshan" out loud and the Shopify number swells; say "already doing good sales" and it swells again. I price the build, not your address or your order volume. The floor is 50,000 BDT, tiers are fixed at 50,000 / 90,000 / 1,50,000 BDT, custom from 3,00,000 BDT — and every number on this page is the number on your invoice.

Most Gulshan brands that ask me for a Shopify store development price in Gulshan are not starting from zero. They are an Instagram label doing 40-50 orders a week out of an apartment near Gulshan-2, a beauty brand whose comments are full of "price koto?", a home-bakery taking orders on WhatsApp until midnight. The product works. What is missing is the store. And the second a developer hears a Gulshan address attached to a brand that is already moving stock, the quote stops being about the build and starts being about how much they think you can pay.
I am RH Fardin. For about five years I have designed and built online stores across Dhaka as one senior operator — no agency, no juniors, no account manager folding a Gulshan Avenue lease into your number. The person you message is the one who customizes the Liquid, wires up bKash and Nagad at checkout, imports your catalogue, connects your courier, and pushes the store live. That structure is the only reason I can hold a 50,000 BDT floor for a Gulshan brand when a studio in a glass tower three minutes from your flat needs three times that before they have drawn a single screen.
There is a second trap specific to stores, and Gulshan brands fall into it constantly: the quote that looks small until the apps and platform fees land. A "cheap" Shopify build turns expensive the month six paid apps auto-renew, the premium theme licence bills, and "each extra product page" gets its own line item. So on this page I separate it cleanly — my development price (from 50,000 BDT) is the one-time fee to design, build, configure and launch your store; Shopify's own subscription (Basic, around USD 25/month, billed straight to you) and any paid apps are separate, predictable costs you control and own. No markup on platform fees, no app stack inflated to pad the invoice.
Every store I take on runs the same terms — 50% advance to lock the slot, 50% on launch, never full upfront — and carries a design-approval guarantee. You sign off the visual direction before I import a single SKU or touch the checkout. If the first direction misses the brief we agreed, we iterate inside scope until it lands. The number you sign at is the number you finish at, whether your warehouse is a Gulshan apartment or a proper showroom on the Avenue.
Six things that hold at every tier — because a Gulshan store quote should describe the build, not the prestige of the bio it came from.
Your quote is design and development hours, not your address. A store for a Gulshan-2 boutique and the same store for a Mohakhali shop cost the same — I do not fold Gulshan Avenue rent or your follower count into the number.
Even the 50,000 BDT tier ships with bKash and Nagad live at checkout via SSLCommerz, plus cash-on-delivery as the fallback your Gulshan first-time buyers still ask for. No "payment gateway is an add-on" surprise after launch.
Most Gulshan brands come to me already selling on Instagram. The store is structured for that handoff — link-in-bio ready, fast on a mid-range Android, so the buyer who used to DM "price?" now just taps Buy.
I will not load your store with a dozen paid apps to inflate the build. Most Gulshan stores need three or four free or low-cost apps, and I put the monthly taka cost of each one in writing before installing a single one.
Your Gulshan customer judges the store against the brands they already follow. Even the floor tier gets genuine theme customization — product cards, collections and cart tuned for how Dhaka shops on mobile, not a free theme with your logo dropped in.
You approve the visual direction before I import a single product or wire up checkout. If the first direction misses the brief, we iterate inside scope until it lands — or your advance comes back. Same guarantee at every tier, every address.
The 50,000 BDT Starter tier is built for the Gulshan brand making the jump off Instagram for the first time — a fashion label, beauty line, home-bakery or candle studio with 20-40 products. You get a properly customized Shopify Basic store on the free Dawn theme, up to 30 products imported and categorized, bKash and Nagad checkout live via SSLCommerz with cash-on-delivery as backup, on-page SEO on your collection and product pages, and your core policy pages. It is the cleanest way to test a real store before you pour money into scale, and it ships in around two weeks. You do not pay more because your bio says Gulshan — you pay for a thirty-product launch store, full stop.
Here is where the number genuinely climbs, and none of it is about the address. The 90,000 BDT Growth tier is for the Gulshan brand already getting orders and tired of copy-pasting addresses into a courier panel — it adds Pathao, Steadfast or RedX integration so orders flow straight to delivery, abandoned-cart recovery, custom collection filters, product reviews, and a bilingual Bangla-English build for the older, wealthier Gulshan clientele who read in Bangla. This is the tier most established Gulshan-2 and Avenue brands land on.
The 1,50,000 BDT Pro tier is for serious operators — custom Liquid sections built to your exact merchandising, B2B or wholesale pricing rules, Shopify Flow automations, and multi-location inventory if you run a Gulshan showroom plus a warehouse. Genuinely custom work — Shopify Plus, headless builds, ERP sync, a custom app — starts from 3,00,000 BDT and is scoped after a call. So when a studio quotes you three lakh for a thirty-product launch store, ask which tier the work actually is.
If the answer is Starter, you are paying for the postcode, not the store.

The questions Gulshan brand owners actually send in the first WhatsApp message — answered straight.
The floor is 50,000 BDT for the Starter tier — a fully customized Shopify Basic store with up to 30 products, bKash and Nagad checkout via SSLCommerz, cash-on-delivery fallback, on-page SEO and your policy pages, launch-ready in about two weeks. The Growth tier is 90,000 BDT and the Pro tier is 1,50,000 BDT. Genuinely custom Shopify Plus or headless work starts from 3,00,000 BDT. These are firm numbers for a Gulshan brand, not opening bids.
No, and that is the point of this page. My price is set by build scope — product count, features, integrations — not your area code or how many orders you already do. A Starter store for a Gulshan-2 label and the same store for a Mohakhali shop are both 50,000 BDT. I do not add a Gulshan premium back in just because the address sounds expensive; you are paying for the store, not the postcode.
No — and anyone who says it is, is hiding markup. Shopify Basic is currently around USD 25/month, billed directly by Shopify to your own card. My fee is the one-time development cost in BDT to design, build, configure and launch your store. During onboarding I set the Shopify account up in your name so you own the store, the data and the billing from day one.
Not the build price, no. Whether you do 5 orders a week or 50, a thirty-product launch store is the same scope and the same 50,000 BDT floor — I do not price your revenue. What your existing sales do change is which tier makes sense: if you are already moving real volume, the 90,000 BDT Growth tier with courier integration and abandoned-cart recovery usually pays for itself faster than the Starter.
Never full upfront. Standard terms across all tiers are 50% advance to lock your slot and 50% on launch — by bKash, Nagad or BDT bank transfer, with Wise or wire for diaspora clients. The advance covers design, theme work and product import; the balance is due when the store is live, tested on mobile, and you have approved the bKash and Nagad checkout flows. On Pro and custom projects I can split into three instalments with a mid-point on design approval.
Not for Starter or Growth — I build on Shopify's free Dawn theme and customize it heavily in Liquid, which usually ends up faster than a paid theme anyway. For Pro, if you want a specific premium theme as a base (Impulse, Prestige and similar run roughly USD 280-380 one-time), you buy the licence in your own account and I integrate it; otherwise the custom-built sections cover the same ground without the extra cost.
