Working with Dawnwire from the UAE
UAE brands sell to a mixed audience in English and Arabic, on a calendar shaped by Ramadan, Eid, national holidays and the November sales. We plan around it, design in both languages and work the same hours you do.
Locations · United Arab Emirates
Dawnwire’s studio is in Dubai, so UAE work is home ground. We have built websites here for a fine-jewelry house, a shapewear brand, a medical supplier, a security systems integrator and a baby and kids store, and designed that store’s banners and social campaigns.

The market
UAE brands sell to a mixed audience in English and Arabic, on a calendar shaped by Ramadan, Eid, national holidays and the November sales. We plan around it, design in both languages and work the same hours you do.
Arabic is not a translation layer. A right-to-left page needs its own layout, mirrored navigation and type chosen for Arabic, or it reads as an afterthought. Our UAE builds ship with proper bilingual English and Arabic structure, the way the Doré and BabyStore.ae stores do.
Online stores here need local payment habits built in: card gateways that settle in dirhams, Apple Pay, and buy-now-pay-later options such as Tabby and Tamara. The UAE’s federal data protection law (PDPL) also sets rules for the customer data your forms collect, and VAT shows on every invoice.
UAE customers search in English and Arabic, often with the area in the query (“clinic in Business Bay”, “furniture store Sharjah”), and Google Maps decides a lot of local choices. Ranking takes pages in both languages, a complete Google Business Profile and reviews from real customers.
Pricing
Starting prices
Prices are in US dollars and the same in the UAE as anywhere else, with a fixed quote before work starts. Because the dirham is pegged to the US dollar, the AED figure never drifts: $6,000 is about AED 22,035.
What moves the price
Smaller fixed jobs: starter packages from $149, bought from a written brief.

Our prices are in US dollars, and the dirham is pegged at 3.6725 to the dollar, so the conversion does not drift: a $900 logo animation is about AED 3,305 and a website from $6,000 is about AED 22,035.
