The E-Commerce Boom in Bangladesh

Bangladesh's e-commerce market has experienced explosive growth, driven by increasing smartphone penetration, affordable mobile internet, and changing consumer behavior. With a market projected to reach billions in the coming years, there has never been a better time to launch or upgrade your e-commerce platform.

At Nexis Limited, we've built several successful e-commerce platforms including Madhobi Mart (clothing), Hoglapata (handicrafts), and Sardar Handicrafts, giving us deep expertise in the Bangladeshi e-commerce landscape.

Choosing the Right Technology Stack

Frontend Frameworks

Next.js with React and TypeScript is our recommended stack for e-commerce. It provides server-side rendering for better SEO, excellent performance, and a great developer experience. Tailwind CSS ensures consistent, responsive styling across all devices.

Backend Architecture

Your backend needs to handle product catalogs, user accounts, orders, payments, and inventory. We recommend Python with Django or FastAPI for robust, scalable backends, or Go for high-performance APIs that handle concurrent requests efficiently.

Database Selection

PostgreSQL is our recommended database for e-commerce applications. Its reliability, JSON support, and full-text search capabilities make it ideal for product catalogs and order management.

Essential E-Commerce Features

  • Responsive product catalog with search and filtering
  • User authentication and profile management
  • Shopping cart and wishlist functionality
  • Multiple payment gateway integration (bKash, Nagad, SSLCommerz)
  • Order tracking and delivery management
  • Admin dashboard for inventory and order management
  • SEO optimization for product pages
  • Mobile-responsive design

Payment Integration in Bangladesh

Bangladesh's payment landscape is unique with the dominance of mobile financial services. Your e-commerce platform should support bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and card payments through gateways like SSLCommerz or AamarPay. Cash on delivery remains popular and should also be supported.
