A Shopify experience for Arabic and English shoppers.
A bilingual Shopify store needs more than translated headings. FIKRA can include Arabic and English storefront design in your project scope, with attention to right-to-left layouts, navigation and the details shoppers use to make a purchase.
Plan both languages from the start
Agree which languages your store needs and who will supply and approve the translations. Product titles, descriptions, collection names, menus, delivery information and customer messages should be considered together. Translating only the homepage leaves gaps in the shopping journey.
Review right-to-left layouts
Arabic content changes text direction and can affect spacing, icons, menus and alignment. Product images, sizes, prices and English brand names may need their own direction treatment. We review these details across the agreed templates rather than treating Arabic as a final visual layer.
Consider the full shopping journey
The language selector should be easy to find and should take shoppers to relevant content. Theme sections and apps may have different translation capabilities. Checkout, notifications and external tools depend on the store's configuration and platform support, so their language requirements need to be reviewed separately.
Keep language content useful and consistent
Each language needs clear product information and accurate policy content. Search visibility also depends on accessible language URLs and meaningful page titles. The implementation should reflect your catalogue and target audience; adding a language alone does not guarantee a search position.
Questions about this service
Do you supply every translation?
Translation responsibility and approval are agreed in the project scope. Bring any existing approved Arabic and English content to the consultation.
Can an existing theme support Arabic?
That depends on the theme, its sections and connected apps. We review the existing setup before agreeing the changes required.
Will every external app automatically switch language?
Not necessarily. Each app or embedded service has its own language support. We identify these dependencies during planning.
