What Kubix Media does

Kubix Media is a UK-headquartered digital agency specializing in Shopify eCommerce development and performance marketing, serving ambitious DTC and B2C brands. The company operates as a Platinum-tier Shopify partner and builds and scales Shopify Plus stores for clients that span fashion, lifestyle, retail, food and beverage, wellness, and art — including named logos such as Ted Baker, Scotch & Soda, Castle Fine Art, Haws Watering Cans, and The Fine Cheese Co. Its core services split into two groupings: "Build" offerings covering Shopify design and development, replatforming and migrations from platforms such as Magento or custom stacks, Shopify POS/retail, and Shopify consultancy; and "Scale" offerings spanning paid media (Meta, Google, TikTok, Pinterest, Snapchat), Klaviyo email and SMS, conversion rate optimization, retention, and eCommerce strategy. The firm has cumulatively shipped 300+ Shopify stores and holds top-tier partner status with Shopify (Platinum), Klaviyo (Master Platinum), and Google (Premier), complemented by a broad stack of secondary technology partners (ReCharge, Nosto, Yotpo, Gorgias, Sparklayer, ShipperHQ, Shiptheory, Attentive, etc.) that map to the integration requirements of enterprise Shopify merchants.

Technically, Kubix delivers work directly on the Shopify platform using Liquid templating, Shopify 2.0 themes and custom sections, Shopify Markets for cross-border (e.g., dual UK/US storefronts), and Shopify POS for unified in-store and online retail. Migrations include structured data transfer (products, customers, content), SEO-protective redirects, and integrations with ERPs, 3D visualization (Sketchfab), shipping and fulfilment tools, and subscription/recharge infrastructure. Growth services are wired into the same data layer via Klaviyo, Meta Business tools, and Google Ads, with content and CRO bridging site-side changes to paid acquisition.

The business model combines project-based professional services fees for builds and migrations with monthly subscription retainers for ongoing marketing, retention, and CRO work, alongside ad hoc consultancy engagements. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; contracts for build projects run on a multi-year posture while marketing retainers bill monthly. The go-to-market is direct enterprise sales via website enquiry, discovery calls, proposals, and event presence (Shopify Pursuit, K:LDN, IRX), targeting brands "whose goals and values align" rather than running a high-volume SMB motion. The firm is privately held (legal entity Kubix Media Ltd, UK), founder-led by CEO Looay Gharib, with no disclosed external investment or institutional shareholders, and operates a UK headquarters in Birmingham alongside an Irish regional office launched in October 2023.
