IndiePet Simplifies Pet Product Information Management with Salsify-Powered Open Catalog

BOSTON, Nov. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Salsify, the Product Experience Management (PXM) platform empowering brand manufacturers, distributors, and retailers to win on the digital shelf, today announced a new partnership with IndiePet, a nonprofit trade association created by and for independent pet retailers. Through this partnership, IndiePet is expanding its member benefits by offering access to Salsify's innovative Open Catalog, the industry's only product catalog with brand-owned content. IndiePet's Open Catalog, powered by Salsify, uniquely centralizes product content from manufacturer members for retail members, delivering a transformative product information management experience marked by significant time savings, precision, improved convenience and speed.

“We're always on the lookout for ways to strengthen the independent pet ecosystem and help our members compete effectively with mass online retailers. IndiePet's Open Catalog streamlines communication between manufacturers and retailers, ensuring precise product details and expanding product content reach," said Todd Dittman, Executive Director at IndiePet. "What's more, the IndiePet Open Catalog equips smaller retailers to enhance their e-commerce presence with maximum efficiency. It's a game-changing technology that empowers them with a competitive edge."

IndiePet's Open Catalog, powered by Salsify, has transformed the management of pet product information, replacing spreadsheet overload with a more efficient, collaborative, and accurate approach. Manufacturers who are IndiePet members can publish their product content to Open Catalog, while IndiePet’s 240 retail businesses representing 1500 storefronts can easily access and utilize this content, simplifying the entire process.

“Email exchanges and never-ending spreadsheets about product details were cumbersome and inefficient," said Jeremy Barnes, Senior Supply Chain Business Process and Project Manager at Mud Bay. "Open Catalog is a huge boost to our entire industry and truly does level the playing field for independent pet retailers. In the fast-paced world of pet products, Open Catalog has significantly increased our efficiency and competitiveness – essential elements in today's economy."
