Challenges with product data distribution

Do you recognize these problems?

Manual product data distribution to retail partners is error-prone, time-consuming, and leaves you with zero control over what's actually in use.

Retailers ask for current product images by email

Every week, partners send email requests for updated product images, datasheets or catalogs. Each request creates manual work — find, pack, send, repeat.

Manual email requests

Outdated data at the retailer because updates never arrive

You update your product data in your system, but your retail partners still have last quarter's version. Updates reach them only when someone manually emails a new file.

Outdated retailer data

Manually sending Excel lists to every retailer

Preparing individualized product lists and sending them to each retailer separately costs hours every month — and the moment you send it, it starts going out of date.

Hours lost to manual distribution

No overview: who downloaded which version?

You have no visibility into which retail partners have your latest product data, which version they downloaded, or whether they're using updated assets.

Zero distribution visibility

Retailers receive data in the wrong format

Some retailers need CSV, others want Excel, some require BMEcat. Without a format-aware system, partners either get the wrong format or you manually convert for each one.

Format mismatch

Brand presentation at the retailer is inconsistent

Without a controlled distribution channel, partners use outdated images, wrong product names and old descriptions — your brand looks different across every retailer.

Brand inconsistency
Lost brand equity
Brands lose control of their product presentation the moment they email a file.
Every manual distribution step is a point of failure — the file gets saved, forgotten, and stays on partner systems forever without updates. Your brand lives in a state of permanent inconsistency.
