Best Shopify Agencies for Fashion Brands in Asia (2026)

Published 13 November 2026

The best Shopify agencies for a fashion brand in Asia are the ones that have already built stores for clothing, footwear and accessories labels in the region: they know local payments and delivery, store stock by size, cross-border launches and the marketplaces next to your own site. This list ranks ten agencies based in Asia with real fashion work on Shopify, says where each is based, its Shopify partner status, the fashion brands it has worked with, and which kind of brand it suits best. Updated November 2026.

How we chose

Every agency on this list meets three criteria, checked on its own website and in the Shopify Partner Directory in November 2026:

  1. 1.It is based in Asia. Agencies in Australia, New Zealand and the Middle East are not included.
  2. 2.It shows real fashion, footwear or accessories work on Shopify, with brands named on its site.
  3. 3.It holds a Shopify partner status.

The order weighs how much of the portfolio is fashion, how well-known those fashion clients are, and the partner tier, with a spread across countries. We did not use team sizes, client counts or prices: a figure we cannot check on the agency's own page is not in this article. The list is reviewed when an agency's status or portfolio changes.

What Shopify partner tiers mean

Shopify ranks the agencies in its partner program in tiers based on the stores they build and the business they bring to the platform. Platinum is the highest, followed by Premier, Plus and Select. The tier tells you an agency ships a lot of work on Shopify; it does not tell you whether that work is fashion, or whether it knows your market. That is why the client list and the city matter as much as the badge.

1. Wave Commerce

Wave Commerce is a Hong Kong agency and Shopify Premier Partner. Its client pages include Dr. Martens Hong Kong, New Era Hong Kong, Onitsuka Tiger, ASICS, Diane von Furstenberg and Lane Eight, mostly direct-to-consumer stores on Shopify Plus that tie online sales to the brand's shops. Best for a global footwear or apparel brand opening its own store for Hong Kong. wavecommerce.hk

How to choose a Shopify agency for a fashion brand in Asia

Choose for the market, not only for the badge. Selling in Japan, Korea, India or Southeast Asia means local payments, local couriers, local languages and, often, marketplaces beside your own store. An agency that has shipped stores in your market knows which apps and integrations work there.

Look at their fashion work. Ask for two or three fashion stores they built and open them on your phone: how the size guide works, how colour variants switch the photos, how fast a collection page loads.

Ask about your shops. Many fashion brands in the region sell in malls and flagships too. If you need stock by store, click and collect or one loyalty programme across channels, ask how they connect Shopify to your point of sale.

Ask who will do the work and what happens after launch. New drops, seasonal campaigns and new product photos for every colourway keep coming after the store goes live. Ask about ongoing support and its cost.

Have your product content ready. An agency builds the store; it rarely makes the product photos. Plan who produces the on-model images, the colourway shots and the videos before the build starts. If you need them in volume, an AI tool such as our Shopify app creates on-model photos and videos from your product images and publishes them to your product pages.

Its catalogue with sizes and colourways, product photos for every variant, the brand guidelines, the markets and languages it will sell in, and a clear idea of what must happen at launch.

How is this list kept up to date?+

Each agency's location, Shopify status and fashion clients were checked on its own website and in the Shopify Partner Directory in November 2026. The list is reviewed when an agency's status or portfolio changes, and the date at the top says when.
