The minimum recommended size for a Shopify store logo is typically 450px by 250px pixels. However, Shopify allows flexibility, and the ideal size may vary depending on your store's theme and where the logo will be displayed. Ensuring the logo's longest side, whether width or height, is at least 450px will help maintain its quality and clarity across your Shopify store.

All Logobean Logo Packages include high-quality, transparent PNG logos perfectly sized for use on website builders and design tools, including Shopify.
