What our Shopify development services cover
The first decision on a Shopify build is how much to customize. Going too far means a storefront that fights every platform update, and going too little means a store that cannot do what the business needs. Custom Shopify development starts with scoping that line, before any Liquid is written.
Custom Shopify theme development
Themes built from the ground up in Liquid, or an existing theme extended so platform updates apply cleanly to your work.
Storefront build and launch
A complete store configured and launched, with the catalog structure and payment setup handled by one team through go-live.
Custom functionality and app development
When no existing app does what you need, we build the feature as a private Shopify app that you own outright and can extend later.
Shopify B2B store development
Wholesale catalogs and tiered price lists built on Shopify B2B, so your trade buyers and retail customers use the same store.
Checkout and Shopify Plus customization
Checkout extensions and order automation on the Plus tier, for stores that have outgrown what the standard checkout allows.
Headless Shopify builds
A separate front end on Hydrogen or a framework your team already uses, with Shopify still handling the commerce backend.
Not sure how much to customize?
How Shopify website development projects are scoped
What a Shopify build costs comes down to how much of the storefront is custom and whether checkout has to change. Both are settled in a technical review before we quote, so the price is fixed before work starts and is not billed by the hour.

How a Shopify development project works
Every build starts with the same question: what has to be custom, and what Shopify already does well. We settle that first, so the scope is fixed early and the difficult decisions happen in week one.
Scoping and technical review
We review your catalog and the functionality you need, then return a fixed scope with a timeline.
Scoping and technical review
We review your catalog and the functionality you need, then return a fixed scope with a timeline.
Design and theme build
We design and build each template in Liquid, reviewing it against your real catalog before starting the next.
Custom functionality
Anything Shopify does not do natively is built as a private app or a theme extension, and documented for your team.
QA and launch
We test on real devices with real catalog data, then launch to a schedule your team approves.
Handover and support
You get the code and the documentation, plus the Shopify developers who built the store staying available after launch.

Why brands choose scandiweb as their Shopify development company
Shopify Partner since 2016
scandiweb has built on the platform for a decade, long enough to have solved most of what a Shopify build involves.
600+ in-house engineers
Your build is staffed from an in-house team of 600+, where only 0.4% of applicants make it through the hiring process.
ISO certified, PCI DSS compliant
Delivery is ISO 9001, ISO 27001, and ISO 27017 certified, and PCI DSS compliant on builds that handle cardholder data.
$4B+ processed a year
The stores this team supports process more than $4B a year, so your catalog and order volumes are a scale it has handled before.
Clients in 45 countries
Multi-market builds are routine here, which matters once a second currency or a second language enters the scope.
One accountable Delivery Manager
A single Delivery Manager owns your project end to end, with sprint progress visible to you throughout the build.
Award-winning and certified team

Frequently asked questions about Shopify development services
What do Shopify development services include?
Shopify development services cover building and customizing the store itself: theme development in Liquid, custom functionality built as private apps, B2B and Plus-tier features, and headless front ends. At scandiweb the same team that scopes the build writes the code and hands over the documentation at launch. Connecting the store to an ERP or CRM is scoped separately by our Shopify integration services team.
How long does it take to build a Shopify store?
Most Shopify store development projects take 4 to 16 weeks. A store on an existing theme with a straightforward catalog finishes fastest. A custom storefront with B2B pricing or a second market takes longer, and the technical review at the start is what sets the launch date.
What is Shopify theme development?
Shopify theme development is the work of building or extending a storefront's theme, written in Shopify's Liquid templating language. A custom theme is built to your own design and catalog structure. An existing theme can also be extended, which keeps platform updates applying cleanly to the work.
Who owns the custom code after launch?
You do. Every custom theme and private app built for you belongs to your business, including the repository and the documentation. There is no license fee to keep paying and no dependency on scandiweb to make future changes.
How much does Shopify development cost?
Cost follows scope. A store on an existing theme with light customization costs least. Cost climbs with custom checkout behavior and with each back-office system the store connects to. scandiweb quotes a fixed price after reviewing your catalog and current setup, so you approve the number before work begins.
Can you build custom features Shopify does not support out of the box?
Yes. Anything the platform does not do natively can be built as a private Shopify app or a theme extension. The usual reasons are custom pricing logic and order flows the standard checkout will not handle. We scope each one against the platform's limits before quoting, so you know what is possible before committing to the build.
When is Shopify Plus worth it for a new build?
Shopify Plus adds checkout extensions and higher API limits. It starts paying for itself at higher order volumes, or when checkout has to behave differently for wholesale and retail buyers. We scope the build for the tier you are on today and say so if the other tier fits your case better. More detail is on our Shopify Plus page.
Do you work with stores already built by another agency?
Yes, and it is a common starting point. Teams often hire Shopify developers mid-project when an existing build has stalled. We begin with a technical review of the current theme and apps — the same review our Shopify consulting services team uses — then give you a written list of what is worth keeping.
