Shopify agency for Rio de Janeiro brands
Shopify stores for Rio’s beachwear, lifestyle and wellness brands, with Instagram-led marketing and international shipping for fans abroad.
Shopify development and growth for Rio de Janeiro brands
Rio de Janeiro’s brands sell a lifestyle as much as a product. Beachwear and swimwear labels, surf and fitness brands, flip-flops and natural beauty products all trade on the city’s outdoor, beach-going image, and much of their discovery happens on Instagram and TikTok. Tourism also creates customers abroad who first meet a brand in Ipanema or Leblon and later want to buy online from home.
We work with Rio brands remotely, with calls in your morning and creative reviews on staging links. Typical projects include visual, image-led Shopify themes, shoppable social content, international shipping for repeat customers abroad and campaign calendars that build around summer, Carnival and the year-end holidays.
What Rio de Janeiro brands need from their store
Swimwear and beachwear
Swimwear needs detailed size guides, model measurements and mix-and-match bikini tops and bottoms. We build bundle and separates logic, fit notes and exchange information that reduces returns on a category where fit is everything.
Seasonal peaks around summer
Sales build from November through Carnival. We plan launches, pre-orders and email campaigns around that season, and keep the store active through the cooler months with fitness and lifestyle content.
Customers abroad
Visitors often want to reorder after going home. We add international shipping, multiple currencies and English pages through Shopify Markets, so Rio brands can serve fans in Europe and North America without a second store.

Frequently asked questions
Can we ship our swimwear internationally from Rio?
Yes. We set up international shipping zones with express couriers, show duties information clearly and add English and foreign currencies with Shopify Markets. Customs paperwork and export rules are handled with your logistics provider.
Can our Instagram posts link directly to products?
Yes. We connect your Shopify catalogue to Instagram and Facebook Shopping, so posts and stories can tag products. We also tidy product data so it passes Meta’s review and matches your ad campaigns.
Are you based in Rio?
No. Our team works remotely from India with Rio de Janeiro brands. We schedule calls in your morning, share progress on a project board and use staging previews for design approvals, so your team can comment on the real store before anything goes live.
