Shopify Developer in Paris
TL;DR
I build Shopify stores for Paris brands in beauty, fashion and lifestyle, with French-first storefronts, checkout that supports Cartes Bancaires, soldes-ready pricing and CNIL-compliant tracking. Stores are designed to protect brand image while converting paid traffic well. Shopify projects for Paris clients start at about €5,500.

How I work with Paris teams
For French brands, a store must feel premium and fully French, not like an international template with translated text. I build refined, fast themes, manage multilingual content with Shopify Markets, and configure discount display so strikethrough prices follow the EU rule of referencing the lowest recent price. Klaviyo flows, product reviews and GA4 tracking are wired in from launch so the brand can scale without guesswork.
What’s included
- Custom Online Store 2.0 themes in Liquid, with sections and blocks your team can edit
- Headless storefronts on Hydrogen and Oxygen when the brand genuinely needs them
- Shopify Plus — Checkout Extensibility, checkout UI extensions and Shopify Functions
- App integrations — Klaviyo, Recharge, Judge.me, Gorgias, plus ERP and 3PL systems
- Migrations from WooCommerce, Magento and other platforms with full 301 redirect mapping
- Speed and Core Web Vitals optimization
- Shopify Markets for multi-currency, multi-language and international selling
- GA4, server-side tracking, Meta CAPI and Google Enhanced Conversions live at launch
The Paris context
- The French tech scene, supported by initiatives such as La French Tech and campuses like Station F, produces many startups that must win at home before expanding across Europe.
- Consumer-facing communication in France is expected to be in French, and the Toubon law makes French versions of commercial offers and advertising a legal matter rather than a nice-to-have.
Tracking and data collection follow GDPR (RGPD), Loi Informatique et Libertés & CNIL cookie guidelines. The CNIL requires refusing cookies to be as easy as accepting them and has fined companies over non-compliant banners. It also allows certain audience-measurement tools to run without consent when configured strictly, which I use to keep essential analytics working while advertising tags wait for consent.

FAQ
Shopify Developer in Paris: FAQ
How do you handle promotions and 'soldes' on Shopify?
I set up scheduled price changes, compliant reference prices and campaign landing pages so soldes and promotional events run smoothly. Your legal adviser confirms the rules; I implement them reliably in the store.
Can a Paris brand sell internationally from one Shopify store?
Yes. With Shopify Markets you can run French, English and other language versions, local currencies and country-specific pricing from one store while keeping reporting consolidated.
Do you work in French?
I lead strategy and analysis in English, and all French-language copy, ads and pages are written or reviewed by native French professionals. That keeps quality high and ensures nothing reads like a translation.
Can you invoice a French SAS or SARL?
Yes. I invoice in EUR or USD, and cross-border business-to-business services generally fall under reverse charge ('autoliquidation'), so your company accounts for French VAT; your expert-comptable confirms the entry.
