Case Study — E-Commerce
Salomon
GCC distributor store for a world-leading outdoor sports brand — custom Shopify theme replicating Salomon's global site design with full Arabic RTL support, multi-language, and multi-country localization.
The Challenge
Bringing Outdoor Performance to the GCC
Salomon's local GCC distributor needed a regional Shopify store that replicated the global brand's adventurous, performance-driven site design. The store had to support English and Arabic with full RTL layout, serve multiple GCC countries with localized currency and shipping, and showcase Salomon's complex product range with technical specifications.
The challenge was maintaining Salomon's global brand identity and outdoor aesthetic while creating a native Arabic experience — ensuring product specs, sizing guides, and activity-based navigation felt seamless in both languages.
The Solution
Custom Shopify Theme for GCC Markets
Built a custom Shopify theme matching Salomon's global site UI/UX, optimized for GCC markets with region-specific product catalogs and localized content.
Implemented full bilingual support with English and Arabic, including complete RTL layout, Arabic typography, and mirrored navigation for activity-based product discovery.
Developed a multi-country/region switcher with localized currency, GCC-specific shipping zones, and regional tax calculations.
Integrated GCC payment gateways and regional logistics providers for a seamless checkout experience across Gulf countries.
Optimized performance with CDN configuration, lazy loading, and image compression — achieving fast load times for mobile-first GCC audiences.
