Long-standing product master challenges faced by manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers

We are working to solve the long-standing challenges of the "product master" and revolutionize the distribution of product information. For many years in the distribution industry, it has been taken for granted that goods flow, but information does not.

However, as the times change and purchasing through EC becomes the norm, and customers' values and lifestyles diversify, the value of data has increased dramatically.

While companies are aiming to build data-driven sales strategies using DX, CX, OMO, and other data, the biggest challenge in data utilization is that the product master, which is the data foundation, is not optimized for EC sites or analytics.

Specifically, the following five product master-related challenges are hindering companies' use of data.

Lack of data consistency: The data in product masters often differs among manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers, and the same product may be registered under different codes or names.

Delayed information updates: Adding new products or changing existing product information tends to be delayed. This makes it difficult to respond quickly to market trends and can lead to lost business opportunities.

Time-consuming data management: In many companies, product master management relies on manual work, which takes time and effort and also carries the risk of errors. Efficient data management is needed.

Lack of transparency in information: Product information may be incomplete or hard to understand. This makes it difficult to provide accurate information to customers and business partners.

Limits to data utilization: With the current product master, it is difficult to conduct detailed market analysis and predict consumer behavior using data, and more sophisticated source data management is required for in-depth data analysis.

To keep up with the speed of market change, a data-driven sales strategy that effectively uses customer data and product data is essential.

It may seem modest, but let's quickly solve the product master challenges that are at the core and differentiate ourselves from competitors.
