Why it matters

A coherent approach for product, brand and customer content

Retail content rarely arrives as one neat document. A product launch may include catalogue entries, packaging, campaign copy, training materials, point-of-sale artwork and updates across several digital channels. Each asset has its own deadline, format and approval route.

We bring order to those moving parts. Your project manager coordinates the files, language specialists and reviewers, while translation technology and terminology tools safeguard your brand guidelines and Tone of Voice and help maintain consistency across product ranges and content updates.

What we translate

Retail content for every customer touchpoint

A specialist team covering every part of getting your products in front of a new market.

E-commerce and catalogue content

Product names, descriptions, and category pages translated for online stores, marketplaces and product information systems to reflect local search intent and appeal to international shoppers.

Packaging and labelling

Copy translated and typeset to fit the available space and meet local expectations.

Training and product knowledge

Retail training, product guides and e-learning content localised for store teams, distributors and customer service staff to boost sales KPIs.

Campaigns and point-of-sale material

In-store and advertising content adapted for local audiences to attract new customers.

Support from source file to finished asset

Your dedicated project manager gives you one point of contact across every language and deliverable. We plan the workflow around your launch calendar, manage questions and in-market feedback, and keep related content together so that decisions made for one asset carry through to the others.

A product tagline needs a different approach from a warning label. We recommend the right balance of specialist translation, transcreation, automation and human review for each content stream, then agree the approach with you before work begins.

We can work with a wide variety of file formats, including design, web and structured-content formats. Translation memories allow product updates to be handled effortlessly, and integrations reduce manual hand-offs. Our multilingual DTP team can also return typeset artwork ready for publication.

Certified for quality and confidentiality

Our quality management system is certified to ISO 9001, and our information security management system is certified to ISO 27001.

ISO 17100:2015: The international standard for professional translation services.
ISO 9001: A quality management framework that allows us to deliver work of a consistently high standard.
ISO 27001: Robust information security management, protecting confidential product launches at every stage.
Strict confidentiality protocols: NDAs as standard, secure file transfer, and encrypted storage throughout the workflow.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. We work with editable copy and artwork, taking account of space, approved terminology and the information supplied as part of the brief.

We use regular language teams and turn in-market feedback into linguistic assets such as translation memories, approved glossaries and style guides, which serve as the definitive point of reference for the teams involved in your account.

Only as part of an agreed workflow. We assess the content, language combination, sensitivity, volume and quality requirement before recommending the right approach for your content.

Pricing takes into consideration content length and format, the workflow required, and any additional services such as transcreation, DTP or platform integration. We review the files before providing a tailored quote.
