Agency in Vancouver.
Shopify, web platform, brand identity, and growth strategy for Vancouver, Yaletown, and the Pacific Northwest athleisure, creative-tech, and cleantech brands. Pacific Time, six-hour afternoon overlap.
Pacific creative-tech. Mountain-meets-ocean brands.
Looking for a Shopify agency or DTC web developer in Vancouver, Yaletown, or the Mount Pleasant tech corridor?
Digital Heroes works with Vancouver brands across athleisure, creative-tech, and cleantech. We cover Pacific Time Monday through Friday, 9 to 6 PT, with a six-hour afternoon overlap to our New York HQ. You also get 24/7 emergency support from our Delhi and Sydney offices.
Vancouver has a rare commerce gravity. The Lululemon-Arc'teryx-Aritzia corridor runs the densest athleisure DTC operator pipeline in North America. Games and creative-tech studios cluster around the Hootsuite scaleup ecosystem. Cleantech operators build evidence-led product for the city's climate-conscious buyers.
We work with operator-led brands adjacent to Lululemon, Arc'teryx, Aritzia, or the Hootsuite scaleup ecosystem.
Three Vancouver archetypes we ship.
The Vancouver mix concentrates around three repeatable patterns. Athleisure DTC shape, creative-tech shape, cleantech SaaS shape; each carries a distinct content gravity and a distinct integration topology.
02
Creative-tech + games studios
Games studios, interactive media, and creative-tech operators. Narrative-shaped product pages, marketing-site rebuilds on Next.js, dashboard UI for the creator-tools subset.
03
Cleantech SaaS + climate tools
Energy, carbon, and climate tooling SaaS. Evidence-led marketing surfaces, dashboard UI, scientific-publication integration, public docs portals on Mintlify.
Pacific Time. Six-hour afternoon overlap.
Vancouver runs on Pacific Time, three hours behind our New York HQ. The clean overlap window runs noon to six PT, when our New York mornings sync with Vancouver afternoons. Slack stays asynchronous through the rest of the day.

Looking for a Shopify agency or DTC web developer near you in Vancouver?
We work across Metro Vancouver: Yaletown, Mount Pleasant, Granville Island, Gastown, Burnaby, Richmond, North Vancouver, and the Whistler corridor.
Pacific Time coverage is Monday through Friday, 9 to 6 PT, with weekly Friday demos on PT and a six-hour afternoon overlap to our New York HQ. When we shape a Vancouver engagement, our reference points are operator-led brands adjacent to Lululemon, Arc'teryx, or Aritzia; the games and creative-tech studios; and the Pacific cleantech operators building for climate-conscious buyers.
On the technical side, we plan in Figma, build on Next.js or Shopify Plus, and deploy through Vercel and GitHub.
For billing and lifecycle, we integrate Stripe and Klaviyo. Reporting flows through Looker Studio, and we hold storefront LCP under 2.5 seconds against the web.dev Core Web Vitals rubric.
Five questions Vancouver founders ask.
Do you have an office in Vancouver?
Digital Heroes is a remote-first agency with HQs in New York and Delhi plus offices in London, Sydney, and Lucknow. We work with Vancouver and Pacific Northwest brands on Pacific Time hours (9 to 6 PT, Monday through Friday) with a six-hour afternoon overlap to our New York HQ. We do not maintain a Vancouver-local office and we will not invent one.
What kinds of Vancouver brands do you typically work with?
Our typical Vancouver fit is a $5M to $40M GMV athleisure or technical-apparel DTC operator on Shopify Plus; a creative-tech or games-studio operator with marketing-site and dashboard work; or a cleantech SaaS founded out of the Pacific climate ecosystem needing an evidence-led marketing-site rebuild and product surfaces.
Do you build cleantech or only ecommerce?
Both. The Vancouver mix is roughly 55 percent DTC and 45 percent SaaS or cleantech. We ship Shopify Plus builds for the city's athleisure and technical-apparel operators alongside Next.js marketing-site rebuilds, dashboard UI work, and integration-heavy product surfaces for the creative-tech and cleantech operators.
Will you fly to Vancouver for kickoff or quarterly reviews?
Yes. Vancouver is a 5-hour flight from our New York HQ. For retainer engagements we include quarterly in-person sessions either at the client location across Yaletown, Mount Pleasant, the Vancouver Harbour, or Granville Island, or at an agreed neutral spot. For one-off platform builds we typically include a launch-week trip and a 60-day post-launch review trip in scope.
How quickly can you scope a Vancouver project?
30-minute discovery call gets booked typically within a week. Written scope plus fixed-price quote returns within 48 hours of that call. For SaaS marketing-site rebuilds we layer a 5 to 7 business day technical-discovery phase to map integrations and data sources before the quote becomes binding.
