Meet Louw van Riet

A decade of building stores that actually sell

eCommerce Development SA started in 2014 with a simple belief: South African businesses deserved ecommerce stores as good as anything coming out of London or New York — without paying agency rates.

Today, we’re South Africa’s #1 ranked ecommerce development team on Google. We’ve built over 400 online stores for businesses ranging from one-person side hustles to multi-million-rand retailers. Our clients sell physical products, digital downloads, services and wholesale — across South Africa, the UK, Germany, the USA and Mauritius.

Louw personally leads every project. He’s a Shopify Certified Partner, runs Google Ads campaigns generating real ROAS for clients, and has been hands-on with WordPress and WooCommerce for over a decade. When you work with us, you’re working with a small, senior team — not a junior at an agency.
