FAQ
Shopify Development Agency in UAE: questions
01Do you design Arabic and bilingual brands for the UAE?
Yes. Identities are built Arabic-ready from day one: a paired Arabic typeface, right-to-left layouts and bilingual websites, so the brand reads as premium in both languages.
02Which UAE industries do you work with?
Real estate developers and brokers, luxury and fashion retail, hospitality and F&B, events and startups across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah.
03How closely can you work with a Dubai team?
Closely. The UAE is only 1.5 hours behind India, so we work almost entirely inside your business hours, with video workshops and visits for larger engagements.
04Do you build custom themes or adapt existing ones?
Both. A custom theme when the brand needs its own look and speed. An adapted theme when the timeline is short and the design is close to what a good theme already offers.
05Can you add features our theme does not have?
Yes. Bundles, subscriptions, wishlists, store locators, custom product builders and similar features are built into the theme or as a small private app.
06Do you work with agencies as a white label Shopify team?
Yes. We build under your brand, sign an NDA and deliver to your client deadlines.
07Who owns the code and the accounts?
You do. Hosting, domain, analytics and the full source code are in your company's name from the first day, and everything is handed over at launch.
08How do you run projects?
Discovery and scope first, then two-week sprints with a demo at the end of each, a shared board you can see at any time and a single senior lead who owns delivery.
09Do you work with clients in the UAE?
Yes. We work with founders in the UAE remotely, over video calls, phone and email. Gulf time is just 1.5 hours behind India, so we work almost entirely in your business hours.
010Why would a United Arab Emirates brand hire The BrandBerry?
Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah expect polish from the first scroll. We build premium English-first brands with Arabic-ready identity systems and bilingual websites for Gulf real estate, hospitality, luxury retail and startups, working almost entirely inside UAE business hours.
011Who will I work with?
A small senior team led by our founder, Jai Malhotra. You speak directly with the people doing the work, with no account managers in between.
