Sports ecommerce across gear, sizing and seasons.

One catalogue, very different products

The challenge in sports and fitness is range breadth. Apparel needs fit information and returns handling. Equipment needs specifications, dimensions, weight capacity and assembly detail. Supplements need ingredient and compliance content and subscribe well. Each has different logistics.

So the catalogue architecture has to support genuinely different attribute sets and merchandising logic per category, while the storefront still feels like one coherent shop.

Demand is also sharply seasonal and event-driven, new year, marathon calendars, school terms, tournament seasons, which makes stock and campaign planning a calendar discipline rather than a monthly reaction.
