Online stores for Riyadh fashion labels that sell out on launch night.

Codeeo handles fashion ecommerce website development in Riyadh for designer labels, abaya and thobe ateliers, modest wear brands and mall retailers. We build the store that takes the order: an Arabic first catalogue with every size and colour as its own stock line, filters shoppers actually use, a checkout with mada, Apple Pay, STC Pay, Tabby and Tamara, ZATCA compliant invoices, and delivery booked to a National Address anywhere in the capital.

Riyadh shoppers compare a label's website with the boutique they visited in Olaya last weekend. When the site loads slowly, hides the size chart or fails on a mada card, they go back to Instagram and message someone else. The store has to match the showroom.

Built for
Riyadh designer labels, abaya and thobe ateliers, modest wear and evening wear brands, streetwear start ups and retailers with branches in the city's malls who now need a store that sells online.
Typical timeline
Timing is agreed in writing after discovery. It depends on how many products and variants you carry, the state of your stock data, payment and courier onboarding, and whether you are aiming at a collection drop, Ramadan or Riyadh Season.
What you own
The storefront and its code or theme, your domain, product catalogue, customer and order history, payment gateway and courier contracts, and every photograph, all registered to your company.

What the Riyadh store includes

The parts of the store that turn a browse into a paid order.

A fashion customer in Riyadh rarely buys on the first visit. She checks the fabric, the length against her height and whether her size is still there, often from a phone in a car on King Fahd Road. Then she returns at night to pay. Every feature below exists to keep that second visit short. We build the catalogue so each size and colour has its own stock count, the product page so it answers the fit question before anyone asks it on WhatsApp, and the checkout so local cards and wallets work first time. Behind the storefront sits an admin your merchandising team can run without a developer: new collections, sale prices, sold out states and delivery rules. Fashion online store development in Riyadh also means planning for spikes, because a drop announced to a loyal following can bring more traffic in an hour than the rest of the month.

Explain your project
  • Variant level catalogue

    Each style is one product with size, colour, length and fabric as variants, every combination carrying its own SKU, barcode and stock count. Swatches show real colour photography, and a sold out size stays visible but greyed so shoppers know it existed and can ask to be told when it returns.

    Shoppers see true availability and your stock reports stay accurate.

  • Arabic first storefront

    The Arabic store is designed first, right to left, with typography chosen for Arabic product names and fabric descriptions. English follows as a full mirror rather than a toggle that breaks layouts. Collection pages, size charts, policies and emails are written in both languages by people, not machine translated.

    Arabic speaking customers shop in a store that reads naturally.

  • Filters for how Riyadh shops

    Filters for size, colour, length, sleeve, occasion and fabric weight, with search that understands Arabic and English spellings of the same item. Results update instantly on mobile, and a shopper filtering for a size only sees pieces she can actually buy.

    Fewer dead ends between landing on a collection and adding to bag.

  • Product pages that settle fit

    Model height and size worn, garment measurements per size, fabric composition, care notes and close up texture shots. For abayas and kaftans we add length guidance, and for made to measure pieces a measurements form that saves to the order record for the atelier.

    Fewer size questions and fewer returns for the wrong fit.

  • Local checkout and payments

    A short checkout that accepts mada, Visa and Mastercard, Apple Pay and STC Pay, with Tabby and Tamara instalments where you choose to offer them. Payments run through a gateway operating under SAMA rules, and 3D Secure is handled inside the page rather than in a confusing redirect.

    More orders completed on the first payment attempt.

  • Delivery slots across the capital

    Riyadh is wide, so the checkout offers delivery windows by district, same day cut off times for nearby areas and a National Address lookup to cut failed deliveries. Couriers receive the order automatically and tracking links go to the customer by SMS and email.

    Couriers find the door first time and customers know when to expect them.

  • Stock sync with your boutiques

    If you sell from a showroom or mall branch, the store syncs stock with your point of sale or ERP so a piece sold in the shop disappears online within minutes. Reserve online and collect in store can be added once the counts are reliable.

    No more cancelling online orders for pieces that already left the rail.

  • Returns and exchanges online

    A returns page where the customer enters her order number, picks the item and reason, and chooses an exchange size, store credit or refund. Couriers collect from her National Address or she drops the piece at a Riyadh branch. Your team approves each request in the admin, and stock returns to sale only after inspection.

    Exchanges keep revenue in the business instead of turning into refunds.

  • ZATCA invoices and VAT

    Prices include VAT where required, and each order produces an e-invoice that meets ZATCA's Fatoora requirements, either from the platform or through your accounting system's integration. Refunds generate credit notes so your records match what the customer was charged.

    Tax records that stand up to review without manual fixes.

  • Drop and launch control

    Schedule a collection to go live at a set time, show a countdown, limit quantities per customer and keep the store fast under a rush of traffic from an influencer post. Early access for registered customers can open an hour before everyone else.

    Launch nights that sell stock instead of crashing the site.

Who this is for

Four kinds of Riyadh fashion business we build stores for.

The capital has a growing designer scene, helped by the Fashion Commission's work with local brands and events such as Riyadh Fashion Week, alongside long established ateliers and retailers in the big malls. Each starts from a different place. A label selling through Instagram direct messages needs order handling more than anything. A mall retailer needs stock accuracy. Here is how we approach the four we meet most often, and what we would put in the first release for each.

01

A designer label selling through Instagram and WhatsApp

Orders arrive as messages, payment is a bank transfer and sizes are tracked in a spreadsheet. We move the catalogue into a proper store, keep WhatsApp as a support channel linked to each order, and give you a checkout that takes cards and wallets. Your followers get a link that works instead of a reply that takes hours.

The first release is usually the catalogue, checkout and order admin.

02

An abaya or thobe atelier with regular clients

Many pieces are made to measure or altered after purchase. The store keeps each client's measurements against her account, lets her reorder a favourite cut in a new fabric and passes production notes to the workroom. Ready to wear and tailored items sit in one catalogue with different lead times shown clearly.

Lead times are shown per product so nobody expects tailoring overnight.

03

A retailer with branches in Riyadh malls

Your stores in places such as Riyadh Park or the Kingdom Centre already run a point of sale system. We connect the online store to it so stock, prices and customer records match, and online returns can be taken in any branch. Staff see web orders in the same tools they use at the counter.

04

A Riyadh brand planning to sell nationally

You want the store to serve Riyadh first and then Jeddah, Dammam and smaller cities. We plan delivery zones, courier contracts and warehouse locations so other regions can be switched on without a rebuild, and set up reporting by city so you can see where demand is coming from before opening a branch.

How a Riyadh fashion store goes from first meeting to first order.

  1. 01Discovery at your studio or showroomOur Riyadh team can meet you in person to see the collection, the stock room and how orders are handled today, then write a scope listing every page, integration and owner.
  2. 02Catalogue and data clean upProduct names, sizes, colours and fabrics are standardised in Arabic and English, SKUs agreed with your point of sale, and photography gaps listed before design begins.
  3. 03Design of the Arabic store firstFashion ecommerce website design in Riyadh starts with right to left mobile layouts for collection, product, bag and checkout, reviewed on real phones before the English mirror is built.
  4. 04Build and integrationsThe platform is configured or developed, then connected to the payment gateway, couriers, point of sale and accounting so orders, stock and invoices flow without manual entry.
  5. 05Testing with real ordersWe place live orders with mada, wallets and instalments, test refunds and credit notes, deliver to several districts and load test the store for a drop before launch.
  6. 06Launch and season planningAfter go live we watch conversion and speed, then plan the next collection, Ramadan and Eid campaigns and any new delivery regions with your team.

Technology

What we build this with.

Shopify or Salla style hosted platforms suit many growing labels; WooCommerce suits brands wanting their own hosting; a headless Next.js storefront suits large catalogues and multi brand groups. We recommend one after discovery, based on your catalogue, team and systems, and set every account up in your company's name so you can change suppliers later.

What Riyadh fashion brands ask before building a store.

It depends on catalogue size, data quality and integrations, and we agree dates after discovery.

A label with a clean catalogue, one warehouse and standard couriers moves faster than a retailer connecting several mall branches to a point of sale system. Payment gateway approval and courier contracts also take time on the merchant side. We write the dates into the scope once we have seen your data, and we work back from any collection launch or season you want to hit so nothing is rushed at the end.
