UP Commerce was founded in 2019 with one mission: give growing brands access to genuine, results-driven e-commerce expertise — without the overhead of a large agency.

Why UP Commerce exists

After spending years managing multi-million pound accounts for brands in the UK bedding, kitchen, and electronics categories, Abubakar Sadique saw the same problem repeat itself: brands with genuinely good products were being failed by agencies that prioritised retainer revenue over client results.

The reports were vague. The strategies were generic. The account managers were handling 60+ clients simultaneously. And the brands were stuck, burning ad budget with no clear plan.

UP Commerce was founded in 2019 to change that. Small enough to give every client genuine attention. Specialist enough to deliver results. And honest enough to tell clients when something isn't working.
