SHOPIFY EXPERT
DUBAI
I'm Khemraj Rikhari - a Shopify Expert in Dubai with a verified track record in B2B eCommerce growth. I built PackTHC's Shopify store from scratch - 300+ SKUs, 3 custom apps, AI-generated product images, and a 6-tier pricing engine - and scaled it to $557K+ gross sales in 12 months with zero paid ads.
I handle everything from Shopify SEO and CRO audits to custom app development, Klaviyo email flows, Google Merchant Center setup, and conversion rate optimization. Whether you're launching a new store or scaling an existing one - I build systems that grow revenue, not just traffic.
- Shopify SEO (technical + on-page + collections)
- CRO audit & implementation
- Custom Shopify app development
- Klaviyo & email marketing setup
- Google Merchant Center & Shopping
- B2B pricing & volume discount systems
The Reality
What I Actually Build on Shopify
I have built a 300+ SKU B2B Shopify store from zero in under 60 days - including 3 custom apps: a 3D label configurator, a 6-tier B2B pricing engine, and an AI image pipeline generating 3,200+ product images. I have deployed Google Merchant Center feeds with 2,620 approved products and built email flows generating $51,908 in revenue.
This is not theme editing - this is full-stack Shopify growth. If you need someone who can ship a production B2B store fast and make it rank on Google, that is what I do.
How I Work
My Shopify Process
Store Audit
Full CRO and technical audit. Page speed, checkout friction, product page gaps, mobile UX issues, missing schema, and SEO problems. You get a prioritized fix list, not a generic report.
Conversion Architecture
Fix product pages, collection structure, internal linking, and checkout flow. Add trust signals, urgency elements, and social proof. Everything is measured against conversion impact.
SEO + GMC
Optimize all product titles, descriptions, and meta tags. Set up or fix Google Merchant Center feed. Target collection and product page keywords for organic Shopping visibility.
Email and Retention
Set up Klaviyo or Brevo flows - abandoned cart, back-in-stock, post-purchase, win-back. Retention is cheaper than acquisition. I built flows that generated $51,908 in recovered and repeat revenue.

FAQ
Common Questions
How much does Shopify development cost in Dubai?
Project costs range from AED 5,000 for a focused CRO or SEO engagement to AED 30,000+ for a full store build with custom apps. I built the PackTHC platform - 300+ products, 3 custom apps - for a fraction of agency quotes.
Can you build custom Shopify apps?
Yes. I have built a 3D label configurator, a 6-tier B2B pricing engine, and an AI content pipeline as custom Shopify apps. I work with a contract Shopify developer for complex builds, with myself as the product owner and technical lead.
What is the difference between Shopify and Shopify Plus for B2B?
Shopify Plus adds B2B-specific features: company accounts, net payment terms, custom pricing per customer, and headless commerce options. For most B2B brands under $1M revenue, standard Shopify with custom logic is more cost-effective.
How do you improve Shopify conversion rate?
I start with Clarity heatmaps and GA4 funnel data to find where users drop off. Common wins: faster page speed, better product images, trust badges at checkout, clearer shipping info, and email capture popups with a real offer.
Do you work on existing Shopify stores or only new builds?
Both. Most of my work is on existing stores - auditing what is broken and fixing it systematically. New builds from scratch are also available for brands launching their first Shopify store.

Shopify builds and optimization for Dubai and UAE brands. From scratch B2B stores to conversion rate optimization on existing stores - I have built a 300+ SKU Shopify store generating $557K in 12 months. For Dubai businesses, Shopify needs specific optimization: mobile-first checkout, Arabic language considerations, UAE VAT compliance, and local payment methods (Tabby, Tamara BNPL) that significantly impact conversion rates.
I work on both B2B and DTC Shopify stores - including custom apps, theme customization, Google Merchant Center setup, email flows via Klaviyo and PushOwl, and Shopify B2B native features. Every build is tracked from day one via GA4 and GSC. I do not ship stores without proper analytics - you should know exactly what is driving revenue from day one.
Who This Is For
Shopify work covers a wide range - from businesses launching their first store to established brands needing CRO improvements or B2B-specific feature builds. The common thread is brands who want a Shopify store that works as a revenue engine, not just a digital brochure.
- →Brands launching a new Shopify store in UAE and wanting it built correctly from day one
- →Existing Shopify stores with significant traffic but poor conversion rates and high cart abandonment
- →B2B brands needing wholesale pricing tiers, account gating, and minimum order quantity logic
- →Stores needing Arabic language support and RTL layout optimization for UAE consumers
- →Businesses wanting GMC product listings for Google Shopping visibility
Common Challenges I See
How I Work
Tools and Stack
I work across the full Shopify ecosystem - from native platform features to third-party apps and custom Shopify Functions. For analytics, I configure GA4 and GTM from day one. For conversion rate optimization, I use Clarity heatmaps and session recordings. For email and push, I use Klaviyo and PushOwl depending on the business model.

The store was built in under 60 days. Email and push flows via PushOwl generated $51,908 in revenue from abandoned cart recovery and back-in-stock notifications.

The store architecture has supported over $500K in revenue without requiring significant rebuilding - which is what correct platform architecture from the start enables.

Shopify Development and Growth in Dubai - What You Need to Know
Shopify is the world's leading ecommerce platform, but launching a store that converts and scales requires professional engineering and conversion rate optimization. I build custom Shopify themes, structure catalogs, optimize checkout flows, and configure marketing integrations that turn visitors into repeat buyers. This service is for direct-to-consumer and wholesale brands looking to scale their online sales.
The build process starts with custom UI/UX design and database catalog structuring, followed by page speed optimization to guarantee fast mobile load times. I integrate local payment gateways, UAE shipping providers, and automated email flows to create a friction-free shopping experience. A typical custom Shopify project goes live in 4 to 6 weeks with Google Merchant Center feed approval.
Dubai ecommerce brands need a localized Shopify expert because UAE consumer behavior is heavily reliant on mobile purchasing, fast shipping, and local delivery methods. A properly optimized store handles multi-currency checkouts, local VAT compliance, and Arabic language templates natively to maximize regional conversion rates.

Shopify Development & CRO in Dubai - Stores That Convert
A Shopify store that looks good but doesn't convert is the most common problem I see in Dubai eCommerce. The UAE has high mobile traffic, multilingual buyers, and payment method preferences (cash on delivery still drives significant volume) that require specific optimization strategies not covered by global Shopify best practices.
My Shopify work covers three areas: custom development (apps, theme customization, headless builds for performance), CRO (conversion rate optimization using Clarity heatmaps, A/B testing, and funnel analysis), and B2B Shopify (wholesale pricing, account gating, tier discounts, and Shopify B2B native features). I've managed 2,620-product GMC setups and built 3D configurators on Shopify.
For Dubai stores specifically, the biggest conversion lifts typically come from: faster mobile load times (UAE users are on 5G but impatient), Arabic language parity (not just translation but RTL-aware design), and local payment methods - Tabby and Tamara BNPL integration alone typically lifts AOV by 15-25% in the UAE market.
