Shopify Product Data Cleanup + Multi-Store Copy (Master Store ~3,200 Products)

Shopify Product Data Cleanup + Multi-Store Copy (Master Store ~3,200 Products)

Project Overview
We need a complete product data cleanup on our master Australian Shopify store (approximately 3,200 products), followed by controlled copying of the cleaned data to three other stores.

This is a data-quality and content job. Theme work, Google Ads, and Merchant Centre setup are out of scope.

Part 1 – Full Cleanup on Master Store Only
The master store currently has significant data quality issues that must be fixed before any copying occurs:
• Majority of products have only 1 image
• Product Type field is almost completely empty
• Large number of missing SKUs
• Many thin or incomplete descriptions
• Missing or incomplete barcodes/GTINs
• Tags are generic and need improvement
• SEO and AEO content needs strengthening

Required work on the master store:
• Add real product images: minimum 2 images per product, ideally 3–5 where available (main pack shot + additional angles, usage, ingredients, etc.).
• Images should ideally be on a white background to match the style of our other stores.
• Only real manufacturer or high-quality product images. Never use fake or AI-generated images.
• Fill Product Type on every product using clear, consistent values.
• Improve and expand tags.
• Complete missing SKUs using a consistent structure.
• Add real barcodes/GTINs wherever possible.
• Enrich thin descriptions (especially those under 300 characters) with useful content (what it is, key benefits, how to use, etc.).
• General SEO/AEO improvements to product data.

Image sourcing
You are expected to proactively source additional real manufacturer or high-quality product images. We will provide competitor website references to assist, but we will not spoon-feed every image. A proactive approach is required.

Barcodes
We will supply the barcodes we already have (covering a large portion of the catalogue). Approximately 30% will still be missing. If you have tools or reliable methods to research the remaining barcodes, please include this capability in your proposal. Never invent barcodes.

Brand Priority
We have approximately 100 brands. A clear priority order list will be provided. Work must follow the priority sequence we give you.

Part 2 – Copy Clean Data to 3 Other Stores
Only after the master store is fully cleaned and quality-checked:
• 2 stores receive the full cleaned catalogue
• 1 store receives the Korean beauty products (copied across to the relevant Korean-focused store)

New Zealand catalogue note
One of the stores has a New Zealand sales channel that automatically pulls from the main listing and excludes restricted products (e.g. electrical, aerosol). There is no separate full catalogue rebuild required. You simply need to ensure that during the upload/mapping process the existing sales channel settings remain correct and are cross-checked against the current configuration.

What Your Proposal Must Include
Bids that do not clearly cover the points below will not be considered:
1. Relevant experience with large Shopify product data cleanups and multi-store catalogue work.
2. Your proposed approach and process (step-by-step).
3. Exactly what you need from us to start and complete the job.
4. Realistic timeline with clear milestones (e.g. priority brands → rest of catalogue → copy stage).
5. Fixed price for the full scope (master cleanup + copy to the 3 stores).
6. Any assumptions or limitations (especially around image sourcing and barcode research).

Goal
Produce one clean, high-quality master catalogue and then accurately distribute it to the three target stores so we stop carrying data problems across multiple sites.
