E-commerce in Dubai
An e-commerce lives on details: product page speed, clarity on costs, a checkout without friction. That is what we work on.
Publilia has one office, in Florence, Italy. We serve clients in Dubai remotely — which is how digital work has been done for a decade.
Why e-commerce matters in Dubai
Dubai imports Italian interiors, marble, furniture and fashion at scale, and hosts a large Italian business community. Projects here are large, relationship-driven and slow to close.
Arabic-language support and right-to-left layout are not optional extras in this market, and mobile share of traffic is far higher than in Europe.
An abandoned cart is not a traffic problem: it is a trust and friction problem. Shipping costs appearing at the last step, pointless fields, slow loading.

FAQ
Questions about e-commerce in Dubai
WooCommerce or Shopify?
WooCommerce for full control, unusual integrations and no per-transaction fee. Shopify to start fast with less maintenance. We decide on your catalogue, not on principle.
Can you migrate my existing shop?
Yes: products, customers, orders and URLs. Redirects for old product pages are part of the work, not an extra — losing them means losing accumulated rankings.
Do you have an office in Dubai?
No. Our only office is in Firenze, Italy. We work with clients in Dubai remotely.
