Shopify stores built to convert and scale.

Custom Shopify stores, built right.

Your Shopify store should do more than process transactions. It should communicate what makes your brand worth choosing, make products easy to understand, and give customers a clear path from first visit to checkout.

We design and develop custom Shopify websites for ecommerce brands ready to launch, reposition, or grow, bringing strategy, UX/UI design, creative direction, development, and conversion thinking together under one roof. As a Shopify Partner, we can support everything from a new store or redesign to a complex migration, custom functionality, and ongoing optimization.

No more boring storefronts.

Built for clarity, speed, and scale, our Shopify stores are rooted in brand and optimized to convert at every step.

Our Process

No two builds are the same, but high performance starts with a solid foundation. Here is how we typically bring a Shopify store to life.

Map the Strategy

We start with the business behind the store: products, customers, analytics, competitors, positioning, and growth plans. That focus tells us where the budget will do the most work.

01

Architect the Store

We plan how customers move through the store, covering navigation, collections, product discovery, content hierarchy, and wireframes for every key template.

02

Design the Experience

Our designers bring the store to life with responsive layouts, interaction patterns, and a reusable design system that stays easy to use without losing the brand.

03

Build in Shopify

Our developers turn approved designs into flexible Shopify 2.0 templates and sections, configure the functionality you need, and integrate the right apps.

04

Load the Content

We prepare the store for real customers: copy, product content, collections, imagery, metafields, metadata, redirects, and merchandising, scoped to your catalogue.

05

Test & Launch

We QA across devices, browsers, templates, forms, tracking, and every purchase path, then manage launch and train your team on the handover.

06

Grow & Optimize

After launch we keep improving the store through conversion optimization, landing pages, retention, paid media, and ongoing Shopify development.

MILTON COFFE CO.

Elevated Design, Deeper Engagement

Milton Coffee Co. had premium, customizable coffee machines but a website that undersold them. We kept their existing branding and photography and elevated how both were applied, then rebuilt the store in Shopify with a scalable product system, custom UI and animation, and an integrated design-your-own experience, all inside a strict 30-day window. The result is a more considered, more confident storefront that matches the quality of the machines and keeps visitors exploring for roughly twice as long.

“Working with The Branded Agency has been one of the best decisions we’ve made as a company. They helped us successfully launch seven different brands across multiple markets, and the level of execution has been exceptional from day one. What impressed me most wasn’t just the creative work. It was their ability to take ideas that existed only in our heads and turn them into real, scalable brands with clear positioning, strong visual identities, and foundations built for growth.”

FAQs

How much does a Shopify website cost?

Shopify website pricing depends on the size and complexity of the project. Important factors include strategy, custom design, development, integrations, catalogue size, content, migration requirements, and custom functionality.

Our Shopify engagements begin at $5,000 USD. After an initial discovery call, we will provide a recommended scope, timeline, and quote for your project.

How long does it take to design and develop a Shopify website?

The timeline depends on the number of templates, design requirements, content, product catalogue, integrations, and feedback process.

A focused theme customization can move more quickly than a complete custom Shopify website or platform migration. We confirm the proposed schedule before the project begins and identify what your team will need to provide to keep the work moving.

Are you a Shopify Partner?

Yes. The Branded Agency is a Shopify Partner providing Shopify strategy, UX/UI design, development, migration, and optimization services.

Do you create custom Shopify websites?

Yes. We can design and develop a custom Shopify experience around your brand, customers, products, and business requirements.

We can also customize an existing theme when that is the better fit for the scope, budget, or timeline. We recommend the approach that makes the most sense for the business.

Can you redesign our existing Shopify store?

Yes. We can redesign an entire Shopify website or improve specific parts of the customer experience, including navigation, homepages, collection pages, product pages, landing pages, carts, and content templates.

We begin by reviewing the current store so we can determine what should be retained, improved, replaced, or removed.

Can you migrate our website to Shopify?

Yes. We can help businesses migrate products, customers, content, collections, images, metadata, and other required information to Shopify.

Migration requirements vary by platform and data structure. We assess the existing website before recommending the migration plan.

Can you preserve our SEO during a Shopify redesign or migration?

We account for search visibility when planning site architecture, content, metadata, internal links, redirects, and launch requirements.

No agency can guarantee that rankings will remain unchanged after a major migration, but a properly planned transition can significantly reduce avoidable risk.

Do you work with Shopify Plus?

Yes. We can support Shopify and Shopify Plus projects. The recommended platform and scope will depend on your operational requirements, sales volume, markets, integrations, and desired functionality.

Can you integrate Klaviyo and other Shopify apps?

Yes. We can help select, install, configure, and integrate tools for email, SMS, subscriptions, reviews, loyalty, analytics, attribution, search, fulfilment, customer service, and other ecommerce requirements.

Can you improve the conversion rate of an existing Shopify store?

Yes. We can audit the website, review analytics and customer behaviour, identify points of friction, and recommend improvements.

Depending on the engagement, we can also design, develop, test, and measure those improvements.

Will we be able to manage the website ourselves?

Yes. We build with day-to-day management in mind. Where appropriate, we create reusable Shopify sections, templates, metafields, and content controls so your team can update products and pages without relying on a developer for every change.

Training and documentation can be included in the project scope.

Do you provide support after launch?

Yes. We can provide post-launch quality assurance as well as ongoing Shopify design, development, conversion optimization, creative, email marketing, and paid media support.
