The Overview
Born from a desire for unique design, Baggit was founded in 1990 and has since become a leading handbag company and the largest selling bag brand in India. Leveraging traditional handicraft techniques, Baggit pioneered the use of non-leather, eco-friendly materials in modern designs. This commitment to sustainable style has cemented Baggit’s position as a favorite among Indian consumers.
The Challenges
Baggit deals with a wealth of digital assets for their various brands and products, managing these assets for their ecommerce platform presented several challenges:
- Inconsistent Metadata: The information describing each digital asset (such as brand, product name, description) lacked consistency across the board. This inconsistency makes it difficult to find specific products and hinders search functionality for customers.
- Image Size Discrepancies: Baggit’s product images come in various sizes to cater to different user needs and channels. But, the disjointed process of managing different sizes potentially leading to missing or incorrect images displayed on the platform.
- Disparate Data Sources: Data updates for product information seem to be coming from various systems. The lack of a centralized data source was leading to inconsistencies and delays in updating product information on the ecommerce platform.
- Manual PDF Creation: Generating product PDFs “on the fly” suggests a manual process that is likely time-consuming and prone to errors. The process was putting extra manual workload and hampering team productivity.
