Common Challenges
UAE Based D2C Brands
Face on Shopify

D2C brands in the UAE are growing fast, but scaling on platforms like Shopify comes with its own hurdles. Understanding these challenges early can help brands simplify operations and improve growth.

Approach Placeholder
Step

Agencies That Slow You Down

  • Many Shopify partners in the UAE focus only on closing tickets, not fixing core problems. So issues like sluggish Arabic RTL pages, patchy courier integrations, and checkout drop offs keep piling up. And the ones who say they can handle it usually lock brands into pricey retainers, charging hourly for even the smallest update.
Step

In-House Talent Used Only for Tasks

  • Internal teams often slip into an order taking mode where they simply fix a bug or replace a banner when asked. They rarely initiate ideas like CRO testing, improving COD flows, or increasing AOV. This means many growth opportunities never get explored.
Step

Expertise Only on Paper

  • Many agencies, whether within the region or offshore, mainly handle app setups and minor theme edits. Their technical understanding rarely goes deeper than that, and they often misguide brands by claiming certain features aren’t possible on Shopify when they absolutely are.
