Fixing Google Merchant product disapprovals due to alcohol-relat
A client contacted us after part of their Shopify catalog was blocked in Google Shopping for a specific market. Products were marked Disapproved in Merchant Center because alcohol-related words appeared in titles, descriptions, and feed attributes.
We audited the Google Merchant feed and identified issues with attributes, wording, and market configuration. Then we rebuilt the feed generation logic from Shopify, adjusted product titles and descriptions to comply with Google policies, configured country-based product segmentation, and resubmitted the feed for review.
Result: the products were approved again and successfully returned to Google Shopping, allowing the client to resume sales without restrictions.
