Part of ChannelAdvisor's Where to Buy product line, Buy Local, adds functionality to websites by allowing consumers to quickly locate products at brick-and-mortar stores in a certain geographic area of their choosing. Buy Local supports two featured options: Store Locator and Product Locator. Store locator is a feature that returns data on brand availability at physical stores. It allows consumers to find where a manufacturer's products are sold at brick-and-mortar retail locations within a defined georaphic area near them. Product Locator goes one step deeper and displays the availability of product-specific, in-store selections.



"NPD Group is recognized as an industry leader in market information. We're thrilled to partner with them as we look to accelerate our Where to Buy and Buy Local capabilities," says Mike Shapaker, vice president, product management, ChannelAdvisor. "With NPD Group's stock status data, we can provide manufacturers with an even deeper level of visibility into product availability across local retailers. This, in turn, can help drive more online and in-store sales of their products."
