2What PIM is

One place where your product details live

A product information management system, or PIM, holds every detail about every product in one record. Descriptions, images, specifications, prices, translations. Your website, your marketplaces, your partners and your printed catalogs all pull from that one record, so a change made once reaches all of them.

Pimcore is the platform we build these on, and the one every example in this session runs on. scandiweb is a certified Pimcore Platinum Solution Partner.

3The problem

Your product details live in too many places

Your product details sit in a spreadsheet, an ERP extension, a shared drive, and whatever your team built to fill the gaps, and none of them agree.

One product
Running shoes
  • Partner portal

    Upload failed, 1 required field empty

  • From a distributor

    “Is this price list still correct?” Sent in spring

  • ERP, field updated

    Website still shows the old value

4The price you pay

Where it costs you

It shows up in four places, and nobody ever counts the total.

  • 1
    Time to market

    Every launch waits while someone finds, checks, and retypes the data.

  • 2
    Channel and marketplace revenue

    Every channel asks for different details, and nothing tells you what is missing until a product is rejected or returned.

  • 3
    The growth ceiling on new markets

    You update a product, and the other languages don't update accordingly.

4
Your AI plans are waiting on product data

AI works from the data you already have, so when your product data is inconsistent, the results are too.

5The solutions

What the fix looks like

For each one, we'll show a real example of how it is handled in a working system.

Before

A partner portal rejects your product file because a field they require is empty

In the system
  • Required fields checked before export
  • Gaps flagged where they happen
  • Corrections made once
After

The product goes live, and the fix holds for every product after it

All four examples run in Pimcore, on real product records.

6From real projects

One system, and hours of work became minutes

Our work with Läderach, premium Swiss chocolate, 250+ stores worldwide.

Now live
products the ERP used to block
Before

Every market had its own product code, so the same product was entered again and again.

After

Now it is filled in once, and every market updates automatically.

7The audience

  • Business leaders

    CEO, MD, COO, CFO, or CMO, seeing the cost in thinner margins and launch dates that slip.
