Why Brands and Manufacturers need a PIM Solution

Brands and manufacturers have two options for selling their products: sell direct to consumers in-store, on eCommerce sites, and through marketplaces, or sell via retailers and distributors. Often even both! Whatever your strategy, different sales channels have different requirements. A capable PIM for brands helps ensure the right information is presented in the right way in every channel. 

Akeneo PIM helps you keep your product data accurate and organized. It was built to handle all your product information, including descriptions, technical data, regulatory data, images, and other attributes. Even with hundreds of thousands of products and multiple distribution channels, Akeneo can handle it all.
