Productsup: The Evolving Role of Feed Management in Global Commerce

Feed management has rapidly shifted from being a backend IT task to a strategic growth function at the heart of modern commerce. As shopping behaviors evolve and digital touchpoints multiply, the way product content is structured, optimized, and distributed now plays a central role in customer acquisition, engagement, and loyalty.

Traditionally, product feeds were relatively static—used to populate listings on marketplaces or generate basic shopping ads. But in today’s omnichannel environment, feeds must do far more. They must support real-time updates, deliver rich and localized content, and adapt automatically to platform-specific requirements. With thousands of possible channels—from Amazon and Google to Instagram, Pinterest, and emerging marketplaces—manual feed management is no longer viable.

Consumers expect to see high-quality, detailed product content updated in real-time on any channel they choose to be on. Feed managers who are still relying on manual processes are nowhere near meeting these expectations.

The rise of hybrid commerce—where offline and online are deeply intertwined—further complicates the challenge. Opening a new physical store can increase web traffic by 37% and online sales by nearly 14%, while closing one can drop online sales by over 11%. Product content must therefore be ready to serve shoppers in-store, online, and across social platforms, all in synchronized formats.

This complexity has led to a new standard: agile, AI-powered feed management. Businesses now require centralized platforms that can manage millions of SKUs, integrate with thousands of endpoints, and automatically respond to changes in inventory, demand, or channel policies. These systems must accommodate:

  • Localization: Product descriptions, currency, and sizing adapted for regional markets.
  • Compliance: Field-specific requirements like GTINs, taxonomies, or ESG data.
  • Optimization: Performance-based rules to highlight top-selling products and remove underperformers.
  • Personalization: Content dynamically adapted based on audience segment or platform.
  • Sustainability demands: Increasingly, feeds must include honest, traceable ESG information to meet consumer expectations.

With 33% of consumers planning to shop via social media in 2025—and nearly 50% of Gen Z already doing so—feed agility is a requirement, not an advantage. From structured listings to immersive video ads and localized pickup availability, a product feed must fuel every content variant across formats and channels.

This is no longer a back-office task; it’s a performance multiplier. Forward-thinking organizations have recognized that feed management is the foundation of modern commerce success. And with generative AI and automation making it faster and easier to tailor content than ever before, feed management is becoming a lever for revenue growth, not just operational efficiency.

Feed-based marketing has become our bread and butter. If we didn’t have Productsup, we’d potentially miss out on 10% of traffic because we couldn’t efficiently optimize our data feeds.
