Strategic Shopify Design
Foundation Package
Shopify Design
Cape Town Web Designer
A complete, conversion-ready Shopify store, without unnecessary complexity or drawn-out timelines.
The Shopify Build is for brands with a clear brief and a manageable catalogue. The scope is defined, the process is efficient, and the result is a store that looks considered and works beautifully: structured to guide customers toward a purchase, set up to be found, and handed over clean.
Every element is thought through a commercial lens. Not just how it looks, but how it sells.
Price Guide: R48,000 | $3,000 USD · 4–6 weeks
If your requirements are more complex than that - a larger catalogue, a platform migration, custom functionality, or a brief that's still evolving - the Growth Partnership is likely the better fit. We'll confirm which is right for you on the clarity call.
The Details
Who this package is for
✓ Your brief is clear and your catalogue is focused; around 10–100 products, without complexity or integrations.
✓ Your brand assets are ready: logo, photography, and content organised before we begin.
✓ You want the job done properly, by someone who understands eCommerce — not just web design.
✓ You're comfortable owning your store after handover. Training is included to make sure of it.
What's included
Each element is considered through a commercial lens; designed to look good and support sales.
Strategic Planning
We begin by mapping your store's structure, navigation, and design direction before building anything.
Complete Shopify Store Design & Development
Clean, elegant, and built to convert.

Mobile Optimisation
Designed for mobile from the start.

What's not included
This package works because the scope is defined. The following fall outside it — and if you need them, the Growth Partnership is the right conversation:
- Custom theme or app development
- Large or complex product catalogues
- B2B, wholesale, or multi-market functionality
- Complex shipping or 3PL integrations
- Copywriting, brand messaging, or product photography
- Extended support beyond 30 days post-launch

She transformed our website!
Meg transformed our website into something seamless, beautiful, and incredibly easy to navigate. I’ve never experienced such a smooth process in my working career.
A Shopify expert
Her knowledge of Shopify’s technicalities and ability to create a visually stunning, functional store exceeded expectations. She’s patient, clear, and highly professional.
She's calm, quietly confident and wonderfully organised, and just "got" what I was trying to achieve.
Working with Meg has been an absolute pleasure. She's incredibly intuitive and there’s such a calm, grounded energy about her that makes the whole process feel easy.
A pleasure to work with
It was an absolute pleasure working with Meg. She immediately understood what we were looking for and was approachable throughout the process.
She elevated our business to represent where we are today
We interviewed multiple design companies and from the moment we connected with Megan, we knew we had found someone who could elevate our business to represent where we are today. Megan came up with a detailed development plan and was very attentive. Nutmeg Design is highly professional and offers beautiful design ideas.
Absolutely loved working with Meg!
Would recommend her services to other brands. Thank you very much for all of your help!

About the studio
I'm Meg Hodson, founder of Nutmeg Studio and a Verified Shopify Partner since 2019. I've been building Shopify stores since 2015 — long enough to understand not just the platform, but how people really shop: what slows them down, what builds trust, and what guides them toward buying.
The Shopify Build is for brands that come prepared and want the job done properly. You work directly with me throughout — not a team, not a junior — and leave with a store you understand and can run yourself.
