Custom systems
When no app does the job, I build the product.
Dashboards, CRMs, ordering apps and full platforms, built from scratch around how a business really works. One-time build instead of a monthly subscription, and the client owns everything.

Case study · Darussalam · UK, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, UAE
Raising order value across 4 stores, without adding a single new app.
Darussalam is a 40-year-old Islamic publisher selling across four Shopify stores in four currencies. I lead their e-commerce technology. Instead of stacking paid apps, we built the order-value features ourselves, shaped around how their customers actually buy.
- 01
Frequently Bought Together, built in-house
Real "bought together" pairs refreshed weekly from order data, with one slow-moving title added to clear stock. No monthly app fee.
- 02
Bundle builder
Customers build a 3 to 4 book set for themselves, family or kids from live best-seller data, with the discount applied by a Shopify Function.
- 03
Cart drawer upsell
"Complete your library" suggestions inside the cart, so the next book is added before checkout, not after.
- 04
Pay online & save 5%
A custom checkout rule that rewards prepaid orders and hides Cash on Delivery when chosen. Fewer COD returns, more paid orders.

I'm Fahad Azhar, Head of E-commerce Technology at Dtech Systems, where I run Shopify for a four-store group across the UK, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
Before code, I spent eight years in e-commerce operations: order pipelines, warehouses and courier reconciliation, including Aramex in Dubai. So I build stores around how orders are really picked, packed and paid for, not just how the homepage looks.
Today I work across Liquid, JavaScript, React, Shopify Functions and the Admin API, plus WordPress and WooCommerce when a project needs it.
Do you work with agencies on a white-label basis?
Yes. A big part of my work is overflow development for agencies. I work inside your process and tools, under your brand, and I'm happy to start with a small paid task so you can judge the quality first.
Which time zones do you cover?
I'm based in Pakistan (GMT+5). My day overlaps with UK, EU and Gulf working hours, and I regularly cover US mornings for calls and handovers.
Do you work on Shopify Plus?
Yes. I build Shopify Functions (custom discounts, payment and delivery rules), checkout customisations, custom apps and multi-store setups for Plus and non-Plus stores. I always check plan limits before building, so you never pay for something your plan can't run.
How much does a project cost?
Hourly work is $70/hr. Most projects get a fixed quote after a free 20-minute call or audit, so you know the full cost before anything starts.
Will my live store be at risk while you work?
No. All work happens on a duplicate draft theme with a preview link. Nothing goes live until you approve it, and the previous version is backed up.
Do I own the code?
Yes, 100%. Everything lives in your Shopify store, and in your GitHub if you use one. No lock-in and no monthly fees for custom features I build.
