UK web presence
A UK online store, built for UK customers.
KTDS Global builds the brand's UK online store and sets up everything a UK customer expects behind it.
The service
The store, and the work behind it.
KTDS Global builds the brand's UK online store and sets up everything a UK customer expects behind it: a store in pounds with UK delivery, returns and payment methods; product listings written and labelled for the UK; the legal pages, consent and tax settings UK law requires; the connection to the compliance work that must be finished before the first sale; and the fulfilment route from the brand's stock to the customer's door. The store is built on Shopify, handed to the brand at launch, and looked after month to month.
What is included
From compliance to the customer's door.

With the retail route
The store and the shelf go together.
The buyer meeting lands better when the brand has a UK store with UK terms and reviews, and the store sells better once the brand is on a shelf. See retail introductions.
