Magento Product Cataloguing

About Client

The client is a leading distributor for the lighting of sports venues, gas stations, landscaping, and everything! They plan lighting layouts, and supply light fixtures, poles, electrical components, and hardware for projects all over the world! The client was born out of a desire for a narrower focus on customers and their projects. They are having advanced experience and knowledge, that can help your lighting project from start to finish, whether you just looking for a small lamp or want to light up an entire stadium.

Client Expectations

The client owns its website on Magento 1 platform, and the expectation is to list new products on the website and clean up the old listings with proper optimization.

The client approached us and shared the sheet they are getting from their manufacturers so that we can lay out a plan through which the listings can be done easily as per their requirements and without any error since the sheet they are getting, is not arranged properly.

They wanted a sourcing partner who could comprehend their data needs and deliver a competent solution on time and with 100% data accuracy. Initially, they started with simple listings and product updates and then move to configurable products.

Since they are directly dealing with the manufacturers and not with the suppliers, so they want to add everything related to the lighting projects on their website.

They set an expectation to get complete each of the categories especially with the configurable products so that customers can easily purchase the products with the available accessories.

Challenge

The biggest issue was to refine the data from the manufacturer and spec sheet they are getting so that the data can be used directly through the bulk upload.

On the other hand, they do not have any plugins and cleanup software through which the data can be organized and ready to upload through the bulk upload option available in Magento, so they decided to outsource the cataloging through a leading professional outsourcing partner, and then they approached us for the service.

The Goal

• Preparing the data from the manufacturer sheet
• Maintain Accuracy, Providing Appropriate Information
• Preparing SOPs for Each Category
• Doing simple and configurable listings
• Configurable listings should be listed in such a way so that customers can see all available colors, sizes, and accessories in a single listing.
• Utilizing Best Practices and Strategies
• Preparing sheets for upload
