Retail translation

Retail translation:
Boost your international sales with translations that sell!

Whether you are an FMCG manufacturer, specialist retailer or online merchant, the international distribution of your products is now a multichannel affair involving multiple points of contact. It is essential to have reliable and accurate translations at every point of contact in all languages spoken in your target markets.

Our retail translation services are tailored to your challenges: tight production deadlines due to regular releases of new ranges or collections, seasonal marketing communications, and so on. It’s about managing budgets and being able to plan over the year based on online and in-store sales event timetables. And while it’s important to ensure consistency across translated content, it’s also essential to adapt it to the cultural features and linguistic nuances of each market.

How retail translation boosts your international sales

It might seem a simple option to use AI translation solutions like Google Translate to rapidly translate your content into multiple languages. However, it seems that B2C product manufacturers and retailers get better results by investing in professional solutions and services.

Retail translation to boost your sales and enhance your credibility

To reach an international audience, you need to translate product descriptions, labels, user manuals, technical data sheets and so on. Retail translation must be accurate to avoid misunderstandings that can lead to product safety or quality issues. For example, an error on a food label can cause allergic reactions or even food poisoning.

Our “human in the loop” translation services are an investment that quickly proves profitable by boosting sales across all channels (physical or online retail). In stores or online, the confidence inspired by marketing in the buyer’s language doubles the purchasing conversion rate. Translation significantly boosts customer satisfaction and perceived quality.
