What we normalize
Supplier feeds rarely share a format — field names, category structures, and even measurement units differ supplier to supplier. We map each feed to a consistent structure on your platform, so products behave the same way in your catalog regardless of source.
Duplicates and merging
When multiple suppliers carry the same product, we can merge listings, choose a preferred source, or keep them separate — depending on how you want pricing and stock handled. This is a decision we make with you, not a default we impose.
Keeping data current
Feed update frequency depends on what your suppliers actually provide and what your platform can reasonably absorb — we agree a realistic schedule rather than promising real-time updates a source feed can't support.
Frequently asked questions
Can you combine feeds from multiple suppliers into one catalog?
Yes — merging, deduplicating and normalizing multiple supplier feeds into a single consistent catalog is a common part of this service.
What happens when a supplier discontinues a product?
Depending on your preference, we can mark it unavailable, hide it, or keep it visible with a backorder status — configured once, applied automatically on future feed updates.
Can supplier feeds be translated for other markets?
Yes, feed content can be translated, either through automated translation or a custom mapping you provide, depending on accuracy requirements.
