Managing Product Data for More Accurate and Consistent Catalogs
Getting product data ready for distribution can take more work than expected. Manufacturers often provide information in different formats (e.g., spreadsheets, PDFs, incomplete product descriptions, etc.) leaving distributors with the burden of organizing, classifying and standardizing it before products can be listed for sale.
Product data standards and newer AI tools can reduce the time it takes to organize and classify product information, though human review is still necessary to catch errors and ensure accuracy. Together, these approaches help distributors add products more efficiently and maintain consistent, reliable catalogs across sales channels.
