Shopify Stores
Built To Sell.
Tocal IT Works is a Shopify development company that builds high-converting stores — from a fresh launch to a full redesign of an underperforming one. Theme development, payments, app integrations and speed optimisation, all tuned for revenue per visitor, for brands in India, Australia and the US.
What We Actually Do
Custom Theme Development
Hand-built or heavily customised themes that match your brand — not a generic template with a new logo slapped on.
Checkout & Payments
Shopify Payments, multi-currency, upsells and abandoned-cart flows configured to recover lost revenue.
App & Inventory Integrations
Klaviyo, subscriptions, reviews, ERPs and inventory sync — wired up cleanly without slowing your store down.
Speed & Core Web Vitals
Image, script and app-bloat audits so your store loads fast on mobile, where most of your traffic actually is.
Conversion-First UX
Product pages, collection pages and cart flows designed around how people actually decide to buy.
Shipping & Fulfilment Setup
Shipping zones, rates and fulfilment integrations configured so orders move without manual babysitting.
Shopify Development For Stores Like Yours
Most of our Shopify development work falls into four situations. If one of them sounds like you, the free call is worth 20 minutes.
New brands launching their first store
You have products, photos and a rough idea of the look, but you want the store set up properly from day one — payments, shipping, tax, policies and tracking — instead of fixing it after the first 50 orders.
Stores moving to Shopify
You are on WooCommerce, Wix or a custom build and maintenance is eating your time. We move products, customers and order history, and map every old URL to its new home so search rankings carry over.
Existing stores that have stalled
Traffic is coming in but sales are flat, the theme feels slow, or ten apps are fighting each other. We audit what is there, remove what is not earning its keep, and rebuild the pages that matter most.
Brands selling across borders
You sell in more than one country and need the right currency, tax display and shipping rules for each market, managed from one Shopify admin rather than separate stores.
What a Shopify Build Includes
Every project is scoped to what your store actually needs, but a typical build covers the following. Nothing on this list is an optional extra you discover later — if it applies to your store, it is in the written scope.
- A short discovery session covering your products, customers, markets, current tools and the numbers you want to move.
- Theme selection or custom design, built with Shopify’s sections and blocks so your team can edit pages without calling a developer.
- Product, variant and collection setup, including cleaning and importing your catalogue from a spreadsheet or your old platform.
- Payment gateways, taxes and currencies configured for each country you sell in.
- Shipping zones, rates and courier or fulfilment integrations.
- Only the apps you need — each one checked for cost, speed impact and overlap with features Shopify already has.
- SEO foundations: clean URLs, page titles and descriptions, image alt text, structured data, and 301 redirects when you are migrating.
- Speed checks on real mobile devices before launch, since that is where most shoppers browse.
- Analytics and conversion tracking, so you can see which channels actually produce orders.
- A walkthrough of your Shopify admin and a launch-day checklist, plus support in the weeks after go-live.
Shopify Development in India, Australia & the US
Our team is based in India and works remotely with store owners across India, Australia and the United States. Each market has its own details that a generic setup tends to miss.
India
Shopify Payments is not available in India, so stores use gateways such as Razorpay, PayU or Cashfree — and Shopify adds its own transaction fee on those orders, which affects which plan is cheapest. We also plan for cash on delivery, pincode checks, GST-ready invoices and return-to-origin risk. Our guide to what a Shopify store costs in India breaks the numbers down.
Australia
Prices shown in AUD with GST included, Australian shipping rates and carriers, and payment options your customers expect at checkout. We schedule calls and check-ins within Australian business hours, so you are never waiting overnight for an answer during a launch week.
United States
USD pricing, sales tax that varies by state, and shipping rules for domestic and international orders. Many US clients also want their store connected to a CRM for follow-up — we build that side too through our GoHighLevel service.
What Affects the Cost of a Shopify Store
There is no honest single price for Shopify development, because two stores that look similar can need very different amounts of work. These are the factors that move the number most:
Theme or custom design
Customising a well-built existing theme is quicker than designing and coding every template from scratch. Both are valid; the right choice depends on how distinctive your brand needs to look.
Catalogue size and data quality
Twenty products with clean data take far less time than two thousand variants spread across messy spreadsheets. Clean, complete product data is the biggest time-saver you can bring.
Migration
Moving from another platform adds data mapping, redirect planning and testing, especially if you want to keep customer accounts and order history.
Custom features
Product configurators, bundles, subscriptions, wholesale pricing or custom checkout logic each add development and testing time.
Integrations
Connecting an ERP, inventory system, courier platform, accounting tool or CRM adds work — more so when the other system has a limited API.
Markets and languages
Each extra country, currency or language adds settings, translations and checks on tax and shipping.
Beyond the build, plan for the running costs: your Shopify plan, monthly app subscriptions, payment gateway fees and any transaction fees. After the discovery call you receive a written scope, timeline and quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for before any work starts.
Do You Need a Shopify Development Company?
Not always. If you sell a handful of products in one country and are happy with a standard theme, Shopify’s own setup tools will get you live, and you can bring in help later.
A Shopify development company earns its fee when mistakes are expensive: migrating a store that already ranks in Google, launching into several countries, connecting stock and order systems, or fixing a store whose speed and conversion rate are holding back your ad spend. In those cases, doing it right the first time costs less than undoing it.
Still deciding on a platform? Our comparison of Shopify vs WooCommerce sets out the trade-offs, and if WordPress suits you better we also build WooCommerce stores. Once your store is live, our SEO services help it get found.
From Brief to Revenue
Discovery Call
A free call to understand your products, markets and goals — and to tell you honestly whether Shopify is the right fit.
Scope & Store Plan
A written scope listing pages, features, apps, integrations and timeline, agreed before any build work begins.
Build & Review
We build on an unpublished theme or development store, and you review progress at set checkpoints while your live store keeps selling.
Launch & Support
Test orders, redirects and tracking are checked before go-live, then we stay on hand to fix anything that comes up after launch.
Frequently Asked Questions
Both. Plenty of our work is auditing and rebuilding underperforming stores — fixing slow themes, broken checkout flows, or apps fighting each other — as well as launching brand-new stores from scratch.
