Minimalist Shopify Fashion Website and App

Job Title:
Shopify Expert Needed — Fashion D2C Website + Mobile App (500+ SKUs, India-Focused)

Project Overview:
We're building the digital presence for COASTA, an Indian D2C bikini/swimwear brand — a Shopify website and a companion mobile shopping app (iOS + Android), both connected to the same product catalog and backend. We need an experienced Shopify developer/agency (or a website + app team working together) who has shipped Indian D2C fashion stores and apps before, and understands why a 500+ SKU fashion catalog needs proper filtering, size-guide UX, and inventory structure from day one — on both web and mobile.

Part 1: Shopify Website — Scope of Work

Shopify theme selection/customization (premium theme or custom build) matching our brand identity (navy/cream/coastal aesthetic — brand assets will be shared)
Store architecture for 500+ SKUs: collections, tags, metafields, size/colour variant structure
Mobile-first, fast-loading design
Product filtering/search for a large catalog (size, colour, price, category)
Size chart / fit-guide implementation across all product types
Payment gateway integration: Razorpay (UPI, cards, EMI, wallets)
COD setup with OTP/WhatsApp order verification to reduce fake orders and RTO
GST-compliant invoicing (CGST/SGST/IGST split, HSN codes)
Shipping integration: Shiprocket or Delhivery, with pincode serviceability checker
WhatsApp integration for order updates, abandoned cart recovery, and support
Reviews app setup (photo/video reviews)
Returns/exchange flow
SEO fundamentals: meta structure, schema markup, image optimization, Search Console setup
Meta/Google/TikTok pixel + Conversions API (server-side tracking) setup
Basic email/SMS marketing flow setup (welcome series, abandoned cart, post-purchase)
Bulk product upload/import for 500+ SKUs
QA across devices and browsers before launch

Part 2: Mobile App — Scope of Work

Native or hybrid shopping app for iOS and Android, connected to the same Shopify product catalog, inventory, and orders (via Shopify Storefront/Admin API, or a proven app-builder platform such as Tapcart, Shopney, or Vajro — open to your recommendation)
Full product browsing, filtering, and search matching the website experience
Cart, checkout, and payment (Razorpay/UPI) integration
Push notifications for cart recovery, order updates, and promotions
Wishlist / save-for-later functionality
User account sync with the website (shared login, order history, addresses)
App store optimization basics and submission to Apple App Store and Google Play
Basic analytics/tracking integration (Meta, Google) inside the app

Must-Have Experience:

Proven track record building Shopify stores for Indian D2C fashion/apparel brands (share 2–3 relevant links)
Experience building or integrating mobile shopping apps connected to Shopify (native build or app-builder platforms)
Experience with large catalogs (300+ SKUs minimum)
Hands-on experience with Razorpay, Shiprocket/Delhivery, GST invoicing apps, and WhatsApp commerce tools
App Store / Play Store submission experience

Deliverables:

Fully functional, launch-ready Shopify website
Fully functional iOS + Android app, submitted and live on both stores
All apps/integrations configured and tested on both platforms
Product catalog uploaded (we will supply data/images in structured format)
Documentation of the full tech stack and admin/app access handover
2 weeks of post-launch support for bug fixes on both website and app

Budget: [Add your budget range — consider website and app as separate line items even if quoted by the same team]
Timeline: [Add your target launch dates — website and app can have different milestones]
