Failed product imports
Shopify rejects the file, or worse, accepts half of it. The error report rarely tells you which rows are actually broken or why.

24-hour CSV delivery
24 hours from acceptance, counted in working hours (PKT), after the file is accepted and the scope is confirmed.
No Shopify password
File-based work never needs your store login. Your file comes in, your repaired file goes out.
The problem
Your products shouldn’t be stuck in a spreadsheet
Most catalog problems are boring, specific and fixable — once someone looks at the data properly instead of re-uploading it and hoping.
Broken or duplicated variants
Sizes and colours collapse into one product, options repeat, and variants overwrite each other on import.
Inconsistent SKUs and pricing
The same SKU on three products, prices written as words, compare-at prices in the wrong column. Inventory and reporting quietly break.
Supplier data that needs restructuring
Supplier sheets were never made for Shopify. Their columns, codes and formats need translation before they can become a catalog.

Flagship service
Shopify CSV repair, done carefully
This is catalog repair and import preparation — not spreadsheet tidying. Six areas of work, checked on every file:
Product & variant structure
Products, options and variants rebuilt so Shopify reads them as one coherent catalog, not a pile of rows.
SKU consistency & duplicate detection
Every SKU checked for duplicates, blanks and near-matches across the whole file — not just the visible part.
Price & compare-at formatting
Prices converted to clean numeric values in the right columns; word-prices and stray currency symbols flagged or fixed.
Missing & inconsistent fields
Gaps are listed in an exception report for your decision. Nothing is silently filled in or guessed.
Column & header correction
Supplier columns mapped to Shopify’s exact headers, in the right order, with the right names.
Import formatting & validation
UTF-8 encoding, handles, image URLs and row structure validated before the file ever reaches your store.

The same rows, before and after
Toggle between the file as it arrives and the file as it leaves. Prepared rows are finished; unclear rows are flagged — the decision stays yours.

A “row” is a populated data row in your file, excluding the header row and fully blank rows. A product with 30 variants occupies 30 data rows. One source file per package; extra work is quoted before it is done — no surprise charges.

How it works
Four steps, no guesswork
Step 01
Send your requirements
Email the file, or describe the problem first. Start with a free 10-row sample if you prefer to see the quality before committing.
Step 02
Receive a scope confirmation
I review the file, identify the issues and the ambiguous data, and confirm the exact price and delivery time in writing.
Step 03
Approve the work
Work begins only after the scope and the payment arrangement are agreed. Nothing extra is done — or charged — without your approval.
Step 04
Receive your files
You receive the cleaned catalog, a QC report, a change log of everything that was altered, and an exception list of anything that needs your decision.

Errors remaining after repair and QC
Zero errors is the reported result of this specific controlled test — it is not a guarantee for every customer file. The demonstration uses fictional data, is labelled as a demonstration everywhere it appears, and was not a client project. You can inspect how the test was run, what the QC checks are, and what a delivery contains on the Process & Proof page.
Privacy & data handling
Your store stays yours. Your passwords stay private.
No password, ever
File-based work needs no Shopify password and no access to your live store. Please never email passwords or payment details.
One agreed task
Your files are used only for the task we agreed — nothing else, no secondary use, no training data, no resale.
Never shared
Client files and store data are never shared with third parties. The work is done by me, not passed down a chain.
Deleted in 30 days
Working files are deleted 30 days after delivery — earlier whenever you ask. The full policy is on the Privacy page.
Questions
Before you ask
Do you need my Shopify password or store access?
No. CSV repair is file-based: you send the file, I repair it, you import the result. For store setup, a collaborator or staff account may be needed — only with your approval, and only for the agreed work.
What exactly counts as a “row”?
A row is a populated data row in your file, excluding the header row and fully blank rows. A product with 30 variants occupies 30 data rows, because each variant is its own row in a Shopify CSV.
How does the free 10-row sample work?
Send up to 10 rows from your file. I return a preview showing the issues found and the corrections I propose. One sample per prospective project, no obligation to buy, and the sample never includes a full repair or invented data.
How fast is delivery, really?
For CSV packages within their row limits: 24 hours from acceptance, counted in working hours (PKT). The clock starts when your file is accepted and the scope is confirmed, and it pauses if source data is unclear or a decision from you is pending. Complex or unsupported files get a separate estimate before work begins.
What do I receive back?
The cleaned CSV, a QC report summarising the checks performed, a change log of everything that was altered, and an exception list of anything that needs your review. Your original file is preserved and returned unchanged alongside.
What if some of my data is missing or wrong?
It gets flagged, not fixed by guessing. Missing facts are never invented — they appear in the exception list so you can decide what they should be.
How do I pay, and what if the work can’t be completed?
Orders run through the platform where you found the service, or by Payoneer for direct clients; work begins after the scope and payment arrangement are agreed. If agreed work cannot be completed, the undelivered part is refunded in full.
What happens to my files afterwards?
They are used only for the agreed task, never shared, and deleted 30 days after delivery — earlier on request. See the Privacy page for the full policy.
