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.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 03

    Cart drawer upsell

    "Complete your library" suggestions inside the cart, so the next book is added before checkout, not after.

  4. 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.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Something else on your mind? Message me on WhatsApp or email me.

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.
