B2B Manufacturers & Distributors

Learn how CatalogIQ intelligently builds and enriches high-performing catalogs — even when product data is messy, fragmented, or missing entirely.

Struggling with Product Data? You’re Not Alone.

For most B2B manufacturers and distributors, product data isn’t just incomplete — it’s practically nonexistent. What often passes for a product listing is little more than a part number, brand name, and a few specs buried in spreadsheets or old PDFs. Yet these companies are expected to compete in a digital-first world where buyers demand search-ready, spec-rich, fully merchandised product content across ecommerce, marketplaces, and PIMs.

CatalogIQ for B2B Ecommerce

Rapid Catalog Assembly

We ingest raw data from Excel files, PDF & Word docs, images, ERP exports, and supplier feeds, aligning it into a normalized format. Our platform automates the creation of item records, ensuring consistent naming conventions and structured spec layouts across SKUs.

Template Blueprint Engine

We create custom templates for each product type, drawing from your input data, industry patterns, and best-in-class examples. This ensures consistency and accuracy while dramatically reducing time-to-market for new SKUs.

Source Governance

We manage and reconcile data from multiple sources — manufacturer specs, internal documentation, or previous ecommerce listings — giving you full control over which attributes are used and where they come from.
