Magento Development and Design: Professional Stores That Grow with You

We design and develop Magento 2 stores for growing and large businesses: Arabic and English storefronts, a well-organised catalogue for thousands of products, payment and shipping integrations, and multi-vendor marketplaces when you need them. We start with your requirements and a fixed written price, and deliver in stages you can see.

Is Magento the right platform for your store?

Four honest questions. Magento is powerful, but it is not right for every store, and if something simpler is enough, we will tell you.

Do you have more than 1,000 products, or products with many options (sizes, colours)?
Do you need several stores, languages or currencies from one admin panel?
Do you need multiple vendors, or special prices for wholesale customers?
Does your budget cover a powerful server and regular store maintenance?

Our Magento development and design services

From storefront design to maintenance after launch, one team looks after your store at every stage.

Magento store design

A storefront in your brand identity, built on a professional theme we customise or a bespoke design, with product pages that encourage buying.

Magento development

Custom extensions and features for your store, and integrations with your systems: inventory, accounting, payment gateways and shipping carriers.

Magento Arabic localisation

A full right-to-left Arabic storefront, translated store, invoices and emails, with multiple languages and currencies.

Mobile-friendly stores

An easy, fast shopping experience on phones and tablets, from browsing products to checkout.

Multi-vendor marketplace

A marketplace where vendors add their products and manage their orders, with commissions and a separate account for each vendor.

Extension setup

We choose the right extensions, install them and test compatibility, so they do not slow your store or clash with each other.

Magento upgrades and security patches

We upgrade your store to the latest releases and apply security patches, after a backup and testing.

Support and maintenance

Ongoing monitoring of performance and errors, problem fixing and speed tuning for a better customer experience.

The customer journey in a Magento store: what we build at each step

A successful store is not judged by its looks alone, but by how easy the path is from the first visit to the delivered order. So we design every stage of the buying journey with care, and use Magento 2 features to remove the steps that make visitors abandon their cart.

Browsing and search

Clear categories and menus, filters by price, size, colour and brand, and fast search that returns results in Arabic and English.

Product page

Sharp zoomable images, all product options in one place, a well-structured description, and stock and shipping details before the buy button.

Cart

A cart that updates without reloading the page, a coupon field, a clear final total, and suggested products that complete the order.

Checkout

A short checkout, guest or account purchase, and the payment methods your customers prefer through the payment gateway you sign with.

Shipping and follow-up

Order and shipping confirmation emails, a tracking number from the carrier, and an account where customers see past orders and reorder easily.

The result is a Magento store that leads visitors to buy in fewer steps, and an admin panel where your team manages orders, stock and promotions with ease. All of it performs best when the store runs on hosting prepared for Magento.

How we build your Magento store, step by step

Every stage gives you something you can see and approve before we move on.

  1. Requirements analysis

The technology behind a Magento 2 store

A fast Magento store comes from layers working together. In Magento development we tune each layer, because one weak layer slows down the whole store.

CDNimages and files
Varnishfull page cache
Magento 2 + PHP 8store logic
Redissessions and cache
OpenSearchsearch and filters
MySQL / MariaDBproducts and orders
Varnish and Redis: Varnish keeps a ready copy of your store pages so they open fast, and Redis keeps sessions and cache data in memory instead of on disk.
OpenSearch: The search engine that recent Magento 2 releases rely on to run search and layered filters inside categories, even with thousands of products.
PHP and the database: We use the PHP and MySQL or MariaDB versions supported by your installed Magento release, and enable production mode and cron jobs that keep indexes fresh.
Security updates: Adobe releases regular security patches for Magento, and we apply them after testing so your store stays safe without interrupting sales.

Magento features that help your store sell more

Magento is more than a storefront: it has built-in sales and marketing tools. We set them up during Magento store design so you can start selling from day one.

Multiple stores and languages

Run an Arabic store and an English one, or several brands, from one admin panel with shared products and customers.

Saudi riyals and other currencies

Show prices in Saudi riyals as the base currency, and add other currencies for customers outside the Kingdom with updated exchange rates.

Smart promotions and coupons

Discount rules on carts and products: buy two get the third, free shipping above a set amount, single-use coupons and prices per customer group.

Ready for search engines

Clean editable URLs, a title and description for every product and category, an XML sitemap, and canonical links that prevent duplicate content in Google.

Easy local payments

We connect the payment gateway you choose to accept mada, credit cards and Apple Pay, through the Magento 2 extension that the gateway provides.

Shipping and tracking

We connect your carrier to calculate rates and issue the waybill and tracking number automatically, based on the API the carrier provides.

A Magento store needs hosting built for it

Magento is heavier than WordPress, and most shared hosting is not enough for it. These are its key requirements, and we prepare them for your store at launch so it runs fast and stable.

See Magento hosting
  • Modern PHPPHP 8 with the extensions Magento requires.
  • OpenSearchRequired by Magento 2 for product search and filtering.
  • MySQL or MariaDBA compatible version, tuned for the store.
  • Memory and cachingRedis and Varnish to keep pages fast under load.

Magento development FAQ

Did not find your answer? Ask us on WhatsApp or open a ticket.

What is Magento?

Magento is an open-source e-commerce platform built in PHP. It suits medium and large stores that need a big catalogue, or several stores, languages and currencies from one admin panel.

How much does a Magento store cost?

It depends on the design (a customised theme or a bespoke design), the number of products and options, extensions, payment and shipping integrations, data migration and languages. We give you a fixed written price once we understand your requirements.

Magento or WooCommerce: which is better for my store?

WooCommerce is faster and cheaper for small and medium stores and runs on WordPress. Magento is stronger for large catalogues, multiple stores, languages and currencies, and wholesale pricing, but needs stronger hosting and costs more to build and maintain. Try the "Is Magento right for you?" tool on this page.

Does Magento support Arabic?

Yes. The theme needs right-to-left adjustments and the storefront, invoices and emails need translating, which is what our Magento Arabic localisation service covers.

Do you integrate payment gateways and shipping carriers?

Yes, we connect your store to the payment gateway and shipping carrier you choose, using the provider's official extension where available, or a custom integration.

Can you move my current store to Magento?

Yes, we migrate products, categories, customers and orders as far as your current platform allows, and set up redirects from old URLs so you keep your search visibility.

How long does a Magento store take?

It depends on the store's size and features; we set the timeline in the agreement after analysing your requirements, starting from the first payment.

What hosting does Magento need?

More resources than a WordPress site: modern PHP, OpenSearch, enough memory and caching such as Redis. Most shared hosting is not enough, so take a look at our Magento hosting.

Do you offer maintenance and security updates after launch?

Yes, we track security patches and Magento and extension releases, take a backup before every update, fix issues and tune performance.

How do payments work?

We agree the payments before starting: one to start and one after you approve the test version; on large projects payments follow the stages. Details are in our design and programming terms.

What is the difference between Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce?

Magento Open Source is the free, open-source edition that most stores are built on. Adobe Commerce is the commercial edition from Adobe, with an annual licence and extra features for large businesses. We help you choose the right edition for the size of your store.

Can prices be shown in Saudi riyals and other currencies?

Yes. Magento supports multiple currencies, so we set the Saudi riyal as the store base currency, and other display currencies can be added with updated exchange rates.

What are the technical requirements for running Magento 2?

Magento 2 needs a supported PHP version, a MySQL or MariaDB database and the OpenSearch search engine, ideally with Redis and Varnish for speed and enough memory. That is why we recommend a VPS or dedicated server rather than shared hosting.

How do you make a Magento store faster?

We enable production mode and full page cache with Varnish, use Redis for sessions, compress images and lazy-load them, remove unnecessary extensions, and measure performance before handover.

Is a Magento store search-engine friendly?

Yes. Magento provides editable URLs, a title and description for every page, an XML sitemap and canonical links. During Magento development we also take care of product structured data and page speed, both of which affect visibility in Google.

Can a Magento 1 store be upgraded to Magento 2?

Yes. Magento 1 reached end of support in 2020 and no longer receives security updates. We move products, customers and orders with the official data migration tool, then rebuild the design and extensions on Magento 2.
