This is Shopify store development in Sylhet, done the way a real build is done. I read how your Facebook page sells and plan the theme around your products. I write the Liquid and wire in bKash, Nagad and cash-on-delivery by hand. Then I test it all on a real mid-range Android over Sylhet mobile data. I am RH Fardin, one senior developer who designs, codes and ships the whole store. Builds start at 50,000 BDT. You sign off the design before I write any code.

Most quotes for Shopify store development in Sylhet are really quotes for a theme install. Pick a demo from the gallery, swap the logo, paste a few products and hand it over. That is the easy 20%, and anyone can do it. The other 80% decides whether the store earns back its 50,000 BDT. It is every decision the template refuses to make for you.
Which payment does your buyer reach for first? Where does the delivery charge show before someone asks? How does a parcel leaving Zindabazar get onto a courier without your team retyping the address at 8am? How fast does the product page open on a four-year-old Android with one bar of signal near Ambarkhana? I build the store around those decisions. The demo-and-disappear crowd skips that work.
Before I touch a theme, I read your Facebook page the way a buyer does. "Koto taka?" lands before anyone says hello. "Delivery charge koto?" comes two messages later. Then there's the COD versus bKash split. Then "Sylhet er baire pathano jabe?", because in this city many orders ship out, not across town. On a food order it's "is the satkora fresh?" and "weight koto?" On a boutique piece it's "original to?"
Those questions are your sales script, and they become the spine of the build. They decide which trust signals sit at the top of the page. They decide which answers live on the product page, so the store closes the sale instead of sending every question back to your inbox. They shape the checkout wording in plain Bangla and English. A developer who has never sold to a Sylheti buyer builds the store backwards. You feel it in every order you lose.
Sylhet also changes the technical build in ways the rest of Bangladesh does not. This is the country's highest remittance region. A real share of your demand is a son in London or a brother in the Gulf sending a gift to a parent's door in Subid Bazar. That buyer wants to tap a card, not haggle over a bKash number at midnight.
The job has two sides. The local buyer needs bKash, Nagad and cash-on-delivery wired in through a proper flow. The overseas buyer needs Shopify's card checkout, tested the way a foreign card really hits it and left live. Then come the parts nobody warns you about. Shopify has no built-in bKash or Nagad. Shopify Payments is not available in Bangladesh. And Shopify bills its monthly plan in US dollars. None of that is a dealbreaker. It is real setup work I do by hand and explain up front.
I take few Shopify projects on purpose, so each gets senior attention. The pricing is the same for everyone. A focused store on a customised premium theme starts at 50,000 BDT. That includes real product pages, bKash, Nagad and COD, courier-ready nationwide address fields and an admin your team can run. A multi-collection Sylhet brand with filters and automation lands at 90,000 or 1,50,000 BDT as your range grows. A fully custom build with heavy Liquid work starts at 3,00,000 BDT.
You pay 50% advance to begin and 50% on launch, by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer. The design-approval guarantee means I write no development code until you sign off the look on screen. Kickoff to launch takes about two weeks for a standard build. It all runs remotely over Google Meet, WhatsApp and screen-share, so no office visit is needed.
Here are six things I do on every Shopify store development project in Sylhet. Each is a choice template builders quietly leave on default. Each is picked for how this city really trades.
This is not a demo with your logo dropped on top. I plan the theme around your real products and edit the Liquid directly: section order, product layout and trust signals. The store fits how you sell, not how some foreign demo seller did.
Shopify has none of these built in. I add bKash and Nagad through a Bangladesh-supported gateway or a clean manual flow. COD is the default, the way Sylhet buyers order. Transactions match to orders inside your admin.
Sylhet's diaspora buyers pay by card. I test Shopify's card checkout the way a foreign card really hits it, then leave it live. A son in London can pay for a gift to Ambarkhana in seconds. Cheap builds never check this flow.
Real Sylhet orders leave the city. Address fields split by division, district, thana and area. Shipping zones separate inside-city from out-of-Sylhet. Order export makes each parcel ready for Pathao, Steadfast or SA Paribahan with no retyping.
I check every store on a real mid-range Android over Sylhet mobile data, not just my desktop. Images are compressed, fonts load lean and tap targets fit a thumb. The product page opens in seconds on one bar, not just on office Wi-Fi.
Shopify bills its monthly plan in US dollars on an international card. I lay out the real running cost before you commit. I keep the app stack lean, so no surprise dollar charge lands after launch and no twelve paid apps drain your margin.
Almost every Sylhet seller who hires me is leaving a Facebook page, not replacing an old website. That move is most of the real work. Your stock lives in album captions and your head. Your prices live in comment replies, and your order history lives in Messenger threads. So the build starts by turning that into structure. Every product gets proper photos, BDT pricing, variants for size, weight or quantity, honest stock counts and descriptions that answer what your DMs answer fifty times a day.
For a tea, satkora, naga or dried-fish seller, that means weight, packing and freshness spelled out on the page. For a boutique, it means fabric, fit and authenticity up front. This is slow, unglamorous work. It is exactly what a 15,000-taka installer skips by pasting three products and calling it a store. I load your real catalogue myself, because the product page wins the sale, not the homepage banner.
Then comes the wiring that makes Shopify act like it was built for Sylhet, not San Francisco. A local buyer sees COD first, plus a clear bKash and Nagad option with the right merchant number and order reference. A probashi buyer abroad gets a tested card checkout that doesn't die at the last step. I split shipping zones at your real rates: inside-city Zindabazar, Ambarkhana and Uposhohor versus the rest of Bangladesh. The address form and order panel let your team hand a parcel to a courier without re-keying anything.
I set up GA4 and the Meta Pixel so you can see what your ads do. I add a Messenger fallback for buyers who ask koto taka first. Then I test the whole store on a real phone over mobile data, both the local and the overseas card checkout, before it goes live. A training call follows so you can run the admin from your phone. That sequence turns a portfolio piece into a store that earns back its 50,000 BDT within the first quarter.

Here are straight answers to what Sylhet sellers ask before sending the 50% advance on a Shopify build. All in BDT, with no agency spin.
Builds start at 50,000 BDT for a focused store on a customised premium theme. That covers product pages, bKash, Nagad and COD, courier-ready address fields and an easy admin. A multi-collection brand store with filters and automation costs 90,000 to 1,50,000 BDT. A fully custom build with heavy Liquid work starts from 3,00,000 BDT. You pay 50% advance and 50% on launch, by bKash, Nagad or bank. Shopify bills its own monthly plan in US dollars on top of my fee, and I explain it up front.
A standard build takes about two weeks from kickoff to a live store, if your photos, prices and content arrive without long gaps. First I read your Facebook page. Then you sign off the design on screen. Then I build: theme, Liquid, real products, payment and courier wiring, GA4 and Pixel. Then I test on a real Sylhet phone, launch and do a training call. A 90,000 or 1,50,000 BDT store, or a custom build from 3,00,000 BDT, takes longer. You get an honest timeline on the first call.
Yes. It's my most common Sylhet project, and the migration is most of the work. Your stock, prices and order history live in captions, comments and Messenger threads. I turn that into structure: proper photos, BDT pricing, variants, honest stock and descriptions that answer your DM questions. I load your real catalogue myself. I also keep Facebook and Instagram selling alongside the store, wire the Meta Pixel and add a Messenger fallback for buyers who ask koto taka first. You're not abandoning the page. You're giving it a real checkout.
Correct, and it's the biggest gap for any Bangladeshi store. Shopify Payments isn't available here, and bKash, Nagad and Rocket aren't built in. So I wire them in by hand, through a gateway such as ShurjoPay, AamarPay or SSLCommerz. Or I set up a clean manual flow that shows your merchant number with an order reference and matches payments to orders. COD is built in as the default, since buyers outside the big metros still trust it first. Shopify's own checkout still takes international cards for your probashi family abroad.
Yes, and in Sylhet that's half the point of Shopify. This is Bangladesh's highest remittance region. Many of your buyers are a son in London or a brother in the Gulf sending a gift to a parent in Subid Bazar or Ambarkhana. They want to tap a card, not learn a bKash flow. One store serves both buyers. Locals get COD by default plus bKash and Nagad. Overseas buyers get Shopify's strong card checkout. I test that flow and leave it live, because cheap builds silently break it.
It's fully remote. Discovery, design sign-off, development, testing and the training call all happen over Google Meet, WhatsApp and screen-share. Unlike an agency, you deal with the one person who designs, codes and ships the whole store. No sales rep hands you to a junior after you sign. You approve the design on screen before development begins. After launch, you reach me directly to change a price, add a product or check the checkout.
