Shopify App Store Developer
UK eCommerce Awards FinalistExeter’s commerce mixes a regional retail centre, independent high streets, visitor economy, professional services and strong trade estates, creating ecommerce needs that span DTC launches, click-and-collect and complex B2B ordering.
Takeoff Digital is a Shopify agency working with Exeter brands and a published Shopify App Store developer. We build engineered-for-scale storefronts, Shopify Plus architectures, custom apps and integrations for teams that need reliable operations as much as polished design.
From a Magdalen Road independent scaling its first DTC range to a Marsh Barton operator modernising a B2B portal off legacy software, we shape Shopify around catalogue structure, fulfilment, trade pricing and the way customers actually buy.
Beyond Devon
Exeter brands are well placed to sell past the city, from Devon demand into UK-wide and international markets. We build Shopify stores ready for multi-region growth, fulfilment and repeat purchasing.
Scale Ready
Whether stock sits behind a shop, warehouse or trade counter, we plan Shopify architecture for cleaner catalogues, faster admin, reliable integrations and fewer operational workarounds.
Performance Tracked
Launch is only the start. We set up analytics, conversion reporting and measurable improvement plans so Exeter teams can see what is driving revenue, margin and retention.
Takeoff x Exeter
Retail clusters around Princesshay and the High Street; independents and hospitality run through Fore Street and Magdalen Road; trade, logistics and B2B suppliers concentrate at Marsh Barton and Sowton. That mix needs ecommerce that can serve walk-in customers, Devon buyers and national demand.
An independent gift retailer may need fast merchandising and click-and-collect; a Marsh Barton parts supplier may need trade pricing and account terms; a food-and-drink brand needs subscriptions, bundles and chilled-shipping rules. We do all of them on Shopify.
Exeter businesses often sell locally in store, nationally from a Devon fulfilment base and occasionally overseas. We configure GDPR-safe data capture, UK VAT logic, postal or courier workflows, and UK-first payments alongside Shop Pay and PayPal.

UK-Hours Support with SLA
Your store doesn't run 9-to-5, and your busiest traffic doesn't wait for office hours. Our support retainer covers full UK business hours with defined SLAs, plus on-call cover for Black Friday, Boxing Day and campaign launches — the moments where downtime costs real money.

UK-time support that lines up with your team. Same-timezone response for critical issues, no overnight handoffs to teams in other regions.
Proactive Monitoring
24/7 uptime, performance and checkout monitoring. We see the Shopify issue before your customer does — and usually before your CS team does too.
Peak Season Cover
BFCM, Boxing Day and campaign cover with named engineers on-call. Pre-agreed scaling plans so your Shopify Plus store holds up when it matters most.

Shopify Agency Exeter FAQ
Do you meet clients in person in Exeter?
Yes, where it is useful. Takeoff Digital is a UK-based Shopify agency working remotely with Exeter brands, and we can arrange in-person meetings in the city for discovery, planning workshops or key project milestones.
How much does a Shopify build cost for an Exeter business?
As a guide, theme builds start from £15k, while Shopify Plus and headless projects typically start from £45k. Migrations are scoped separately because catalogue, order, customer and integration complexity varies. We provide a fixed price after discovery.
Do Exeter brands need Shopify Plus?
Not always. Shopify Plus is usually right for higher-volume brands, B2B requirements, complex checkout needs, multiple storefronts or deeper integrations. We will recommend standard Shopify where it is the better commercial fit.
Can you migrate from Magento, WooCommerce or BigCommerce to Shopify?
Yes. We plan migrations from platforms including Magento, WooCommerce and BigCommerce, covering product data, customer records, order history, redirects, SEO risk, integrations and launch sequencing so the move is controlled rather than rushed.
Do you support SEO and CRO after launch?
Yes. We can continue after launch with technical SEO, content structure, speed improvements, analytics, A/B testing where appropriate and conversion-rate optimisation focused on revenue, margin, average order value and repeat purchasing.
Can Shopify handle trade ordering for Marsh Barton or Sowton suppliers?
Yes. Shopify can support trade accounts, customer-specific pricing, bulk ordering, quote-style journeys and integrations with stock or finance systems. We design the setup around how sales teams, warehouses and repeat buyers already work.
