Managing product data across spreadsheets and the storefront leads to errors and slow launches. Our Shopware to Akeneo PIM integration lets you enrich product information once in Akeneo and publish it automatically to Shopware.
Product attributes, media, categories, variants and translations flow from Akeneo to Shopware on a controlled schedule, so your catalogue is always complete, consistent and on-brand across every locale.
What we keep in sync
- Products, variants and configurable options
- Attributes, attribute sets and families
- Categories and category trees
- Media assets — images, documents and videos
- Localised content and translations
- Completeness and publication status
Why merchants choose this integration
One source of product truth
Enrich once in Akeneo and publish everywhere — no more conflicting product data between teams and channels.
Faster time to market
Automated publishing means new products and updates reach the storefront in minutes, not days of manual entry.
Consistent, localised catalogues
Translations and locale-specific content sync cleanly, so every market sees complete, accurate product pages.
Quality gates
Only products that meet Akeneo completeness rules get published, keeping half-finished data off your storefront.

Frequently asked questions
What product data syncs from Akeneo to Shopware?+
Products, variants, attributes and families, categories, media assets, and localised translations all sync from Akeneo PIM to Shopware. We map your Akeneo model to Shopware properties and custom fields during setup.
Can the integration handle multiple languages and locales?+
Yes. Akeneo locale-specific values map to Shopware language layers, so each storefront language shows correctly translated product content.
Is the sync scheduled or real time?+
Both are possible. Most catalogues use a scheduled sync (e.g. every few minutes or hourly) with the option of event-driven publishing when a product reaches full completeness in Akeneo.
