Vonto arrived as a concept: a name, an ambition to feel royal, and nothing else — no product, no store, no customers. We ran it end to end. Planning, product hunting, design, a Shopify build on a heavily customised Dawn theme, conversion testing, launch, SEO, paid media and influencer marketing. Today Vonto is a Dubai luxury brand averaging USD 110,000 in revenue every month.
Most ecommerce briefs start with a product. Vonto started with a feeling: a founder who wanted to build something royal and luxurious for the Gulf market, and a blank page.
There was no range, no supplier, no platform, no audience research and no brand. Every decision — what to sell, who to sell it to, where to sell it and how it should feel — had to be made before a single pixel was designed.
Luxury also leaves no margin for amateur work. A customer paying Dhs. 1,900 for a backpack judges the brand on photography, typography, page speed and checkout in the first three seconds.
Same founder, same ambition. The difference is everything we built around it.

Datalabs took Vonto from a concept to a Dubai luxury brand averaging USD 110,000 in monthly revenue. The work covered planning, product sourcing, brand and UI design, a custom Shopify build, A/B testing, launch, SEO, paid media and influencer marketing.
Dawn is fast, lightweight and free, which gave Vonto a strong performance base with no theme licence cost. Datalabs then customised it heavily with custom Liquid code, so the store looks bespoke while staying easy for the client to manage.
Datalabs evaluated many categories and suppliers but kept one filter: every product had to feel royal and luxurious. That process produced six signature collections, from card holders around Dhs. 480 to cabin bags around Dhs. 2,750.
Vonto grew through Meta and Instagram, Snapchat, Pinterest and Google campaigns managed by Datalabs. Budgets shifted weekly to the best-performing collections and creative, and retargeting used social proof instead of discounts to protect luxury pricing.
Influencer marketing gave a brand-new luxury name instant credibility with Dubai shoppers. Datalabs partnered with lifestyle, fashion and travel creators, then reused their best content as paid ads, which became some of Vonto’s strongest-performing creative.
