Case study · Vertical platform for perishable goods

How a vertical platform automated product matching across 100+ live supplier feeds.

The challenge

Where things stood

The platform manages over 500,000 live SKU records, roughly 300,000 of which need continuous matching between distributor inventory and supplier feeds. Missing identifiers, inconsistent naming and varying units forced teams into manual spreadsheet reconciliation and phone calls to resolve uncertain matches.

How Claro helped

What changed

Claro was embedded as a continuous product-matching layer between incoming supplier feeds and the platform's canonical records: detecting new or changed records, normalizing inconsistent data, generating candidate matches, evaluating identity using multiple signals, scoring confidence, routing uncertain cases to review, and writing approved results back.

Results

What it looks like today

300,000 SKUs matched continuously across 100+ supplier feeds.

Roughly 40 hours of manual work saved every month.

Faster supplier integration and consistent canonical records, re-evaluated continuously as supplier data changes.

What we took from this engagement

A one-time catalog cleanup becomes outdated as soon as the next supplier feed arrives.

Claro's conclusion, not a customer statement.
