Walden Waves is a Shopify development agency based in East London (Royal Docks, E16). We build fast, custom Shopify stores for businesses across London — designed to convert browsers into buyers, rank on Google, and grow with your business from day one.
We offer a complete suite of Shopify development services for London businesses – from new store builds and custom theme development to Shopify migrations, speed optimisation, app integrations, and ongoing support. Every Shopify store we build is SEO-ready, mobile-first, and built around one thing: turning your visitors into paying customers. Because a beautiful store that doesn’t sell is just an expensive hobby.
No off-the-shelf themes. No compromises. We build bespoke Shopify stores from scratch for London businesses — custom design, custom functionality, and a checkout experience built around how your customers actually buy.
Design that converts. We create Shopify storefronts that guide
customers from landing page to checkout without a moment’s
friction — clear product pages, smart layouts, and a mobile
experience that actually sells.
Already on Shopify but hate your theme? We customise existing Shopify themes and build custom themes from scratch — so your store looks exactly how you imagined it, loads fast, and doesn’t slow down as you grow.
On WooCommerce, Magento, or a custom platform that’s costing
you a fortune to maintain? We migrate you to Shopify cleanly
— all products, orders, and customer data transferred safely,
zero downtime, zero data loss.
Need Shopify to do something it doesn’t do out of the box? We build custom Shopify apps and integrate third-party tools — from CRM systems and ERP platforms to custom loyalty programmes and bespoke checkout flows.
A fast Shopify store sells more than a slow one. A visible one sells more than an invisible one. We optimise your Shopify store for speed and SEO — so you rank higher on Google and convert more of the traffic you get.
A Shopify store without marketing is a shop nobody walks into. We run ecommerce marketing campaigns — SEO, Google Shopping, Meta Ads, and TikTok Ads — that drive the right customers to your store and turn them into repeat buyers.
Shopify SEO takes time to compound. Google Shopping drives sales from the moment your store goes live. Combine Shopify development with Google Ads management and save 15% on your monthly spend.

we start and stick to it.

BigCommerce, and custom platforms are a core service

and SEO signals are transferred safely. Zero downtime.
Zero data loss. Your new Shopify store is SEO-ready
from launch day.
Every Shopify store we build includes full on-page
SEO setup — product and collection schema markup,
optimised meta titles, image alt text, site speed

Shopping campaigns, we offer ecommerce marketing

Yes. If Shopify doesn’t do something out of the box
that your business needs, we build it. Custom Shopify
apps, third-party integrations, bespoke checkout flows,
loyalty programme builds — if it can be built on
Shopify, we can build it.
Absolutely. Slow Shopify stores, poor conversion rates,
and outdated designs are a specialty. We audit your
existing store, identify exactly what’s hurting performance,
and fix it — whether that’s a speed issue, a checkout
drop-off problem, or a full redesign from the ground up.
We’re based at Unit A3, Gateway Tower, 32 Western
Gateway, London E16 1YL — in the Royal Docks area
of East London. Our entire Shopify development team
is in-house and UK-based. No outsourcing overseas.
Your project stays with one dedicated developer
from start to finish.
