A Shopify Store That Sells — Built in 7 Days

FactoryJet's Shopify development starts at ₹34,999 for a custom Liquid theme applied to an existing Shopify store. A full store build — custom theme, products, Razorpay + UPI payment integration, Shiprocket logistics, GST invoicing, WhatsApp notifications, and launch — runs ₹89,999. Shopify Plus builds with Checkout Extensibility, B2B wholesale portals, and multi-storefront management start at ₹1,99,999 and are scoped after a discovery call. All prices are 50–60% lower than comparable Indian digital agencies.

A custom Shopify theme applied to an existing store takes 5–7 days. A full store build from scratch — theme, products, Razorpay + UPI payments, Shiprocket, GST invoicing, WhatsApp flows, and launch — takes 7–14 days. Shopify Plus builds with B2B features or headless Hydrogen take 5–10 weeks depending on complexity. FactoryJet is the fastest professional Shopify development studio in India for standard builds.

We are a specialised Shopify engineering team — not a full-service agency. No account management layers, no generalist developers, no large office overhead. The same Figma-first design process, the same Liquid engineering quality, the same Lighthouse audit before handover — at 50–60% lower cost. We have been building Shopify stores since 2005. You pay for the build, not our admin structure.

The 7-day guarantee covers standard Shopify theme builds and full store builds. The clock starts from design sign-off, not from the first call. If we miss the agreed delivery date, you do not pay for that phase. We have delivered on time on 97% of all projects since 2005. Shopify Plus and headless Hydrogen builds have longer, separately agreed timelines — but we still put them in writing.

Yes — Shopify has strong native support for Indian commerce. Razorpay's Shopify plugin covers UPI, cards, net banking, EMI, Paytm, PhonePe, Mobikwik, and BNPL (LazyPay, Simpl) in a single checkout widget. PayU and CCAvenue are available as alternatives. GST-compliant invoices are generated automatically at order placement using Shopify metafields or third-party apps. Shiprocket integrates natively with Shopify for access to 15+ Indian courier partners. FactoryJet configures all of this as standard — you receive a fully wired, production-ready Indian Shopify store.

Yes — logistics integration is standard in every Indian Shopify build we deliver. We configure Shiprocket for access to Delhivery, Bluedart, XpressBees, Ekart, Shadowfax, and other carriers under one integration, with automated AWB generation, real-time shipping rate calculation at checkout, tracking updates pushed to customers via WhatsApp and SMS, and automated NDR (non-delivery report) workflows. For high-volume brands (10,000+ shipments/month), we integrate Delhivery directly via API for custom SLAs.

Yes — WhatsApp commerce is standard in our Indian Shopify builds. We integrate Interakt, Wati, or AiSensy for: order confirmation and dispatch notifications, shipping tracking updates via WhatsApp, abandoned cart recovery messages (Indian consumers open WhatsApp messages at 3× the rate of email), post-delivery review requests, and re-engagement campaigns. All flows are configured with opt-in at checkout and comply with TRAI DLT registration requirements for business messaging.

Yes — multi-language Shopify stores are a standard capability. We implement the Shopify Translate & Adapt app or Langify for regional language storefronts in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Bengali, Marathi, and Gujarati. Language-switched URLs follow SEO-safe hreflang patterns. Automatic translation is available via DeepL API for product descriptions at scale. All currency and price display remain in INR across all language variants.

Standard Shopify (Basic, Grow, or Advanced at $29–$299/month) works well for most Indian D2C brands doing under ₹5 crore/year online. Shopify Plus (starting at $2,500/month) is worth the investment when you need: fully custom checkout UI via Checkout Extensibility, a B2B wholesale portal with company accounts and net-30 credit terms, management of 10+ storefronts from one admin, or advanced Shopify Flow automation for complex order routing. We assess this during discovery — we will not push you to Plus if your revenue does not justify the subscription cost.

Our standard Indian D2C Shopify stack: Razorpay for payments, Shiprocket for logistics, Interakt or Wati for WhatsApp, Stamped.io or Okendo for reviews, ReCharge or Appstle for subscriptions, Yotpo Loyalty for retention points, Privy or Klaviyo for email capture and automations, and QuickBooks Commerce or Zoho Books for GST accounting sync. We configure, theme-integrate, and test every app we recommend — we do not just install it and leave.

Yes — B2B Shopify development for Indian distributors and wholesalers is a growing part of our work. Shopify Plus has native B2B tools: company accounts with multiple buyer users, dealer-tier price lists, minimum order quantities, and net payment terms. Standard Shopify B2B uses WholesaleX, B2BKing, or custom metafield-based price overrides. We build separate retail and wholesale storefronts sharing a single inventory source — no double-entry, no manual price list management.

Hydrogen is Shopify's React/Remix-based headless storefront framework. It decouples your storefront from Shopify's rendering engine, giving you complete design freedom and sub-1-second page loads on Indian 4G via Cloudflare Workers. Consider Hydrogen if your brand does ₹5 crore+ in monthly GMV and performance is a direct revenue lever, or if you need a custom UX that Liquid themes cannot deliver. For most Indian D2C brands under that GMV, a well-optimised Liquid theme delivers 95%+ of the benefit at a fraction of the cost and maintenance overhead.

Yes — Shopify migrations are one of our most common engagements in India. We migrate products (including variants, images, and metafields), customers, order history, and reviews from WooCommerce, OpenCart, Magento, BigCommerce, Wix, Squarespace, and custom PHP platforms. We map your URL structure and implement 301 redirects for every changed URL before DNS switch. Zero downtime on launch day — DNS switches only after the staging store is fully validated with payments and logistics tested.

Yes — if done correctly. Before the migration, we audit your existing URL structure, identify pages with rankings worth protecting, and build a complete redirect map before touching DNS. Every changed URL gets a 301 redirect. We submit the new sitemap to Google Search Console on launch day and monitor organic traffic for 30 days post-launch. Indian e-commerce stores typically see rankings fully recover within 6–8 weeks. Shopify's default canonical URL handling is fixed during migration to prevent common duplicate content issues.

Yes. Every Shopify store we build includes technical SEO: Product and BreadcrumbList schema for Google Shopping eligibility, optimised title and meta templates for all product and collection pages, canonical URLs to fix Shopify's native duplicate URL issues, compressed WebP images with descriptive alt text, XML sitemap submission to Google Search Console, and Core Web Vitals optimisation targeting green status on Indian 4G networks. Lighthouse 95+ on mobile before delivery.

India has 65% mobile commerce share and a significant percentage of users on 4G with variable data speeds. Our Shopify optimisation for Indian mobile: mobile-first Liquid templates designed at 375px before desktop, WebP image format served via Shopify CDN with lazy loading for below-fold images, Razorpay Turbo for one-tap UPI checkout (eliminates 3–4 redirect steps), sticky Add-to-Cart on PDPs, and thumb-friendly tap targets throughout. Every store passes Lighthouse 90+ on mobile before launch.

Shopify has several known SEO issues that most agencies ignore: duplicate URLs (collection/product vs. direct product URLs), auto-generated paginated collection URLs, missing canonical tags, and slow Shopify CDN image delivery on Indian 4G. We fix all of these: canonical URL configuration, pagination handling with rel=prev/next or noindex depending on content, Product schema markup with price, availability, and review aggregates for Google Shopping, and WebP image conversion with Shopify's image transformation API. Collection pages targeting Indian search intent are written as an add-on service.

Yes — 100%. The full Liquid theme codebase is delivered to your GitHub repository on launch day. You own every file, every section, every metafield schema, and all API credentials. You can hire any Shopify developer in the world to maintain or extend it. No FactoryJet retainer required to keep your store running. We document all custom sections and app integrations during handover — future developers will not need archaeology.

Every Shopify project includes a 14-day post-launch support window covering bug fixes, minor adjustments, and launch questions at no extra cost. Beyond that, FactoryJet offers monthly retainer plans from ₹9,999/month: up to 4 hours of Shopify development, priority same-day bug response, and a dedicated engineer who knows your theme codebase. Retainer clients get pre-built festival campaign assets (Diwali sale banners, Holi offers, Independence Day promotions) and quarterly performance reviews.

Three things: specialisation (we build Shopify stores and web projects exclusively — no social media campaigns, no print design, no SEO retainers disconnected from the build), speed (7-day delivery guarantee for standard builds — the fastest in India), and ownership (full Liquid codebase to your GitHub on launch day, zero lock-in). We have delivered 120+ Shopify stores for Indian and global brands since 2005. We know what actually converts on Shopify — and we build around those data points, not around what looks impressive in a mock-up.

Yes — platform selection is part of every discovery call and we give you an honest recommendation. Choose Shopify when: you want managed infrastructure (no server management), you are a pure D2C brand focusing on product and marketing, you process ₹50 lakh–₹10 crore+ in annual GMV, or you want the fastest time to market. Choose WooCommerce when: you want zero monthly SaaS subscription, need deep customisation beyond what Shopify's Liquid allows, or already have a WordPress ecosystem. We build both — we will tell you which one fits your business, not which one earns us more.
