- Setup

Shopify does the heavy lifting. We build the part customers remember. SARZ builds Shopify and custom headless e-commerce stores for brands in Dubai and the UAE. Shopify runs the products, checkout and orders, while the storefront is designed and coded to fit your brand, load fast and sell.
What's included
- Store planning. Catalogue structure, collections, search, filtering and the path from product page to checkout.
- E-commerce UX and UI. Product pages, cart, customer accounts and any collector or loyalty features you need.
- Storefront development. A Shopify theme or a custom Next.js headless storefront, depending on what the store needs.
- Technical SEO. Structured data, canonical URLs, sitemap and robots rules built for a store.
- Launch. Deployment, domain, HTTPS and a full test of every step from product to payment, on every device.
Why it works.
- 01Built on Shopify or as a fully custom headless store, whichever fits the brand.
- 02Extras a template can't do, like a live 3D showroom.
- 03Payments, shipping, stock and discounts, all set up and working.
- 04Product pages ready for search from launch day.
- 05Proof: ScaleHaus, a UAE diecast store with a real-time 3D garage.
From call to live.
- 01A short call about your products, your customers and how you sell.
- 02We plan the catalogue, the collections and the path from product to checkout.
- 03The key pages are designed first: home, collection, product and cart.
- 04The store is built, connected to Shopify and tested end to end.
- 05It goes live, and we stay on hand for changes and support.

Questions, answered.
Should I use Shopify or a custom e-commerce site?
Shopify handles products, payments, stock and orders reliably, which is why most stores should use it. A headless build puts a custom Next.js front end on top of Shopify, so the store looks exactly how you want and loads faster. If a standard Shopify theme is all you need, that's what we'll recommend.
What is a headless Shopify store?
A headless store keeps Shopify as the back end for products, checkout and orders, while the storefront customers see is a separate, custom-built website. You get Shopify's reliability with full design freedom, better performance and room for features a theme can't do, like the 3D garage on ScaleHaus.
Is Shopify available in the UAE?
Yes. Shopify works for businesses in the UAE, and you can sell in AED and ship locally or internationally. The right payment and shipping set-up depends on your business, so it's covered while we plan the store.
Can you set up the brand as well as the store?
Yes. For ScaleHaus we did both, the brand strategy, logo and visual identity, then the storefront that carries them. Doing both means the store and the brand feel like one thing from the first visit.
Will my store be set up for SEO?
Yes. Stores get clean URLs, organisation and product structured data, Open Graph tags, an XML sitemap and robots rules that keep private pages such as the cart, account and wishlist out of search results.
