Leading e-commerce companies Intelligent Reach and Akeneo announced a global partnership to help their customers build and manage product information and easily sell their products online, across the globe.

Akeneo is a global leader in Product Experience Management (PXM) helping businesses unlock growth opportunities by delivering consistent and compelling product experiences across all channels, including e-commerce, mobile, print, points of sale and beyond. With its open platform, leading PIM, add-ons, connectors and marketplace, Akeneo PXM Studio dramatically improves product data quality and accuracy, simplifies catalog management, and accelerates the sharing of product information across channels and locales.

Leading global brands, manufacturers, distributors and retailers, including Thras.io, Staples Canada, boohoo.com, and Air Liquide trust Akeneo to scale and customize their omnichannel commerce initiatives. Using Akeneo, brands and retailers can improve customer experience, increase sales, reduce time to market, go global, and boost team productivity.

Intelligent Reach, with its award-winning product marketing platform, helps leading brands and retailers build robust and tested data feeds, and syndicate product listings across global and local digital marketing channels, and marketplaces.

To maximise benefits to the customer, Intelligent Reach will enhance the current connector and produce an Akeneo App to streamline the integration of the two solutions. This will enable merchants to unlock dramatic digital revenue opportunities and benefit from a truly seamless multi-channel selling experience.

Product information is enriched and contextualised via the Akeneo platform, improving data quality, raising conversion rates and speeding up time to market.

Via the Intelligent Reach platform product listings are distributed across thousands of digital channels like Google, social media, and marketplaces like Amazon and eBay. Additionally, merchants can run channel-specific tests on product attributes, to match their buyers’ search intent, and build up stronger ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) and sales.

“We are excited to partner up with Akeneo, to help merchants build stronger digital revenues and expand their sales globally,” said Steve Rivers, Co-Founder and CCO at Intelligent Reach. “As competition and multi-channel complexity is increasing, high-quality product data and control over product information are key factors to succeed online. By enriching, distributing, and testing product information, brands and retailers can seamlessly grow online and build a robust purchase experience for their consumers.”

“Product information is a game-changer when boosting your digital commerce strategy, and the key to delivering amazing customer experiences across all your distribution channels,” said Scott Rogers, Akeneo’s Vice President Global Channels & Alliances. “The digital commerce boom represents a huge opportunity for global merchants, as long as they can win end users’ loyalty and trust by delivering consistency and synchronization across all their channels. We’re excited to partner with Intelligent Reach to provide our customers with best-in-class solutions to unlock their growth by offering unbeatable product experiences.”
