Custom themes
A store that looks like your brand, not like a template thousands of others use.
Shopify stores for Mumbai fashion, beauty, jewellery, food and lifestyle brands, designed to convert mobile shoppers and scale through festive peaks.
Mumbai, Maharashtra, India
Mumbai is where a large share of India's direct-to-consumer brands are born. A founder in Bandra tests a skincare range on Instagram, a designer in Khar sells out a capsule collection through direct messages, a Lower Parel food startup ships granola across the country from a shared kitchen. Sooner or later each of them needs a store that can take orders at any hour without a person replying to every message. For most, Shopify is the right answer.
Quavento Technologies designs, builds and improves Shopify stores for Mumbai brands. We create custom themes, configure Indian payments and shipping, connect the apps that matter, migrate stores from other platforms and tune product and checkout pages until they convert. We work with brands at launch stage and with established sellers moving to Shopify Plus.
Our team is in Pune, a short journey from Mumbai, and we visit for brand workshops and product shoots when working in the same room will help.

A store that looks like your brand, not like a template thousands of others use.
Short mobile checkout with UPI, cards, wallets, pay-later and controlled cash on delivery.
Reviews, subscriptions, loyalty and shipping apps chosen carefully to keep the store fast.
Products, customers, orders and redirects moved without losing search rankings.
Checkout customisation, automation and wholesale channels for larger brands.
Purchase data sent correctly to Google and Meta, so ad spend can be judged honestly.
Shopify lets a small team run a professional store without employing a developer full time. Hosting, security and updates are handled by the platform, which matters when the founder is also the designer, the buyer and the customer service desk.
It also grows with the business. A brand can start with a simple store, add subscriptions, loyalty, international selling and wholesale later, and move to Shopify Plus when order volumes justify it.
For Mumbai founders who need to launch before the next festive season, speed to market is often the deciding factor.
We say so when it is not. A wholesaler with complicated customer-specific pricing, a marketplace with many sellers, or a business that needs deep integration with unusual in-house software may be better served by a custom build.
Very small sellers who take a handful of orders a month may be fine with a simpler tool until demand grows.
We ask about your catalogue, order volume, margins and team before recommending a platform, because the monthly fees and app costs need to make sense for your business.
We start with the brand: who buys, what they care about and what makes the product different. A premium saree label from Kalbadevi and a streetwear brand from Bandra need very different stores.
Design begins on the mobile screen. We plan the home page, collection pages and product pages around how shoppers browse, then build a custom theme with sections your team can rearrange without code.
Typography, colour and photography follow your brand guidelines, or we create them if they do not yet exist.
The product page is where the decision is made. We place price, key benefits, variants, delivery estimate and the buy button where a thumb can reach them, followed by details, reviews and answers to common doubts.
For fashion, that means size guides, fit notes and model measurements. For beauty, ingredients, usage and skin type guidance. For food, ingredients, shelf life and FSSAI details. For jewellery, purity, weight and certification.
Short videos and customer photographs help shoppers who cannot touch the product.
UPI is the most used method, so it has to work flawlessly. We integrate a reliable gateway offering UPI, cards, net banking, wallets and pay-later, and test each route on real devices.
Cash on delivery remains important for first-time buyers, but it brings refusals and returns. We add rules such as order confirmation on WhatsApp, a small advance for high-value orders and prepaid discounts.
Failed payment recovery messages give customers an easy way to try again.
Brands in the city often dispatch from a small studio, a godown in Bhiwandi or a third-party warehouse. We connect courier aggregators so the best partner is chosen automatically by pin code and weight.
Delivery estimates appear on product pages, tracking updates go out on WhatsApp or SMS, and returns can be requested through a simple portal.
For Mumbai customers, same-day or next-day delivery can be offered in selected pin codes through local partners.
Every app adds cost and can slow the store, so we install only those that earn their place. Typical choices cover reviews, subscriptions, loyalty, bundles, wishlists, shipping, invoices and WhatsApp notifications.
Where a small feature would otherwise need a paid app, we often build it into the theme.
We review installed apps regularly and remove ones that are no longer used, which keeps monthly bills and loading times down.
Speed depends on theme quality, image sizes and the number of scripts loaded by apps. We write lean theme code, compress and lazy-load images, defer non-essential scripts and test on mid-range phones over mobile data.
Fast stores convert better and cost less to advertise, which matters in a city where clicks are expensive.
We measure speed before and after every major change.
Brands come to us from WooCommerce, Magento, custom platforms and marketplace-only setups. We export products, variants, customers and order history, clean the data and import it into Shopify.
Old URLs are redirected to their new equivalents so that Google rankings and saved links continue to work. Customer accounts are invited to reactivate.
The switch is planned for a quiet day, and we monitor orders closely afterwards.
Plus offers checkout customisation, automation tools, higher API limits, multiple storefronts for different countries and a wholesale channel. It suits brands with high order volumes, complex promotions or international ambitions.
We help brands decide whether the upgrade is worth the cost, then build automations for tasks such as fraud checks, order tagging and loyalty tiers.
For a brand selling in India, the Gulf and the United Kingdom, separate storefronts with local currency and tax can be managed from one organisation.
Mumbai's jewellery trade needs stores that handle daily metal rates, certification, custom sizing and appointment booking. Fashion labels need variant-heavy catalogues, lookbooks and smooth exchanges.
We build rate-based pricing where required, virtual consultation booking, made-to-order flows with lead times and size exchange processes.
For a bridal wear designer, an enquiry-led product page with appointment booking often works better than a simple add-to-cart button.
These categories depend on repeat purchases. Subscriptions, bundles and reorder reminders increase lifetime value, while clear ingredient and usage information builds trust.
We set up subscription plans, starter kits, sample offers and refill reminders, and make sure regulatory details such as FSSAI numbers and ingredient lists are displayed.
For perishable goods, delivery is limited to serviceable pin codes with honest timelines.
Yes. Many Mumbai brands supply boutiques and retailers alongside direct sales. We set up trade accounts with wholesale price lists, minimum order quantities, net payment terms and quick reorder forms.
On Shopify Plus, the built-in B2B features handle company accounts and custom catalogues. On standard plans, apps and customer tags achieve much the same.
Wholesale and retail orders share one inventory.
A brand may sell on its own store, on large marketplaces, on quick commerce and from a physical outlet. Without a central view, stock goes out of sync.
We connect inventory and order management tools so that each sale updates stock everywhere, and we integrate point of sale for pop-ups and exhibitions, which are common in Mumbai.
Billing and accounting software can be linked for GST invoices and reconciliation.
Advertising only works when platforms receive accurate purchase data. We configure Google Analytics, Google Ads, Merchant Center and Meta with server-side events where possible, and verify that revenue figures match Shopify.
Dashboards show sales by channel, new versus returning customers, average order value and product performance.
With reliable data, you can scale the campaigns that are profitable and stop the ones that are not.
Launch is the starting point. We study where shoppers leave, test product page layouts, simplify navigation, improve search and refine offers.
Typical improvements include clearer delivery information, better photographs, trust badges near the buy button, sticky add-to-cart on mobile and simpler discount rules.
Changes are tested, measured and kept only if they help.
Diwali, the wedding season, end-of-season sales and brand anniversaries can bring many times the usual traffic. We schedule theme changes, prepare discount logic, test checkout and confirm stock and courier capacity in advance.
Early access for existing customers, gift wrapping and delivery cut-off dates are set up ahead of time.
We stay available on the day, because a broken discount code at peak hour is costly.
Indian fashion, jewellery and food have strong demand among the diaspora. We set up international markets with local currencies, duties information, suitable payment methods and shipping partners.
Content and sizing are adapted for each market, and delivery times are stated honestly.
Starting with one or two countries lets a brand learn before expanding further.
Imagine a home fragrance brand run by two partners in Andheri. They sell candles and diffusers through Instagram and exhibitions, and want a store before Diwali. We would design a warm, simple theme, photograph the range, set up gift sets and bundles, add delivery estimates by pin code and connect a courier aggregator.
Purchase tracking would be configured so their first Meta campaigns can be judged on sales.
After the festive rush, we would review which products and bundles sold best and plan the next collection launch.
Most collaboration happens on video calls, shared boards and WhatsApp. Founders see designs early, comment directly and approve each stage.
For brand workshops and product photography, we can travel to Mumbai, or products can be sent to us in Pune.
After launch, a named contact handles support requests and monthly reviews.
Support plans cover theme updates, new sections, app changes, speed checks, product uploads and fixes. We also advise on merchandising, offers and retention.
Your team is trained to manage products, orders and discounts confidently.
As the brand grows, we help with advertising, SEO, email and WhatsApp marketing.
Share your brand, product range and current sales channels. We ask a few questions, suggest a plan and send a written proposal covering scope, timeline and cost.
