What We Did

Vendor Central Setup & Catalogue Control

Content Excellence

Strategic Support & Team Enablement

Vendor Central Setup & Catalogue Control

Vendor Central onboarding was managed end-to-end, from SKU mapping to resolving brand registry and barcode conflicts. Working directly with Amazon Vendor Managers addressed credit limits and logistics constraints. The catalogue was then stabilised by cleaning legacy data and aligning ASIN structures to internal hierarchies to support long-term expansion.

Content Excellence

Unicorn provided content templates, guidelines, and tailored recommendations to support a consistent and effective content approach. This included a content audit of all the listings, identified priorities and provided recommendations of visual and copy assets to reflect a premium positioning. High-quality execution ensured that all products maintained brand credibility from the moment they went live.

Strategic Support & Team Enablement

Strategic support provided a direct link to Amazon to unlock tooling and accelerate resolution timelines. Simultaneously, internal teams were trained to manage content and operations independently. This approach focused on building internal capability, ensuring the organisation could operate the channel with confidence post-launch.
