Why Ayia Napa–Paralimni businesses are investing in custom e-commerce platforms
Ayia Napa–Paralimni is a commercial centre in Cyprus, and one of the places where we build custom e-commerce platforms for local businesses.
Key sectors include hospitality, tourism retail and seasonal services, with business districts such as the Nissi Avenue resort zone and the Ayia Napa marina.
Logistics are supported by The A3 motorway from Larnaca, which matters when you promise customers fast delivery.
Cyprus has SMEs make up 99% of all businesses in the European Union (European Commission). Cyprus is an English-friendly EU market with a strong services economy, international business community and tourism. Local brands use webshops to reach the Greek-speaking diaspora and visitors.

On privacy we design around the GDPR and Law 125(I)/2018, supervised by the Office of the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection; on consumer rights the store reflects the Consumer Rights Law of 2013, implementing EU rules on distance contracts and a 14-day withdrawal right.
Our job is the engineering: price display with tax, invoice numbering, cookie and marketing consent, return and terms pages, role-based access and logs. Legal and tax conclusions stay with your own adviser in Cyprus.
