Company Overview

Lifepro Fitness is a premier fitness equipment retailer with a strong global presence. Their product lineup includes cutting-edge fitness tools and accessories, catering to health-conscious individuals worldwide. With a Shopify-powered e-commerce platform and extensive operations on Amazon—including six Seller Central accounts and three Vendor Central accounts spanning the US, UK, and Canada—Lifepro Fitness required a robust data engineering solution to streamline their operations.

The Challenges

Lifepro Fitness faced significant challenges in managing their data:

  1. Fragmented Data Sources
    • Data was spread across six Amazon Seller Central accounts, three Vendor Central accounts, nine Amazon Ads accounts, Shopify, and manual Excel and Google Sheets tracking.
  2. Lack of Centralized Reporting
    • The absence of a unified reporting system made it difficult to oversee daily operations and track performance across multiple platforms.
  3. Operational Inefficiency
    • Manual data consolidation processes led to inefficiencies, delays, and inaccuracies in reporting, impacting decision-making and operational performance.
