Overview

GDSN integration allows you to automatically sync your product catalog data to Cut+Dry, ensuring your distributors and operators always have access to current product information. Once connected, your GDSN feed will populate essential product details directly into your Cut+Dry manufacturer profile.

While GDSN provides the foundation, we recommend supplementing this data through your Cut+Dry Manufacturer Portal with enhanced attributes that improve product discoverability and drive sales performance.

Follow these steps to connect your GDSN feed.

Connect your GDSN feed

1. Select Settings from the navigation menu, then Data Control.

2. Enable the Publish Data through GDSN toggle.

3. Enter your company name and GLN Number to allow us to send a CIS message to your provider. 

What is GDSN, and why should I connect it with Cut+Dry? 

GDSN (Global Data Synchronization Network) is the industry-standard system for sharing and synchronizing product information between trading partners. As a manufacturer, GDSN allows you to maintain a single source of truth for your product data that automatically updates across all your retail and foodservice partners.

For Cut+Dry, GDSN integration serves as the foundation for getting your products discovered and purchased by operators. Here's why it matters:

• Automated data synchronization: Your product updates flow directly into Cut+Dry's platform without manual intervention, ensuring distributors and operators always see current specifications and availability.
• Industry standardization: GDSN uses GS1 standards that Cut+Dry enhances through our proprietary 10,000-point enrichment process. We take your base GDSN data and add the detailed attributes that drive foodservice sales—like NAMP classifications for meat products, USDA standards for produce, and enhanced nutritional information.
• Broader reach: Cut+Dry integrates with over 4,300 major brands through various data sources, including GDSN. Your participation ensures your products appear in distributor catalogs, giving operators complete purchasing options.
• Enhanced discoverability: While other platforms rely exclusively on basic GDSN/GS1 data, Cut+Dry combines your GDSN feed with advanced search capabilities, AI-powered recommendations, and detailed product filtering, making it easier for operators to find and order your products.
