How to Delete a Product on Meesho

As a Meesho seller, you may find it necessary to delete a product from your catalog for various reasons—whether it’s due to poor sales, outdated inventory, or a need to refresh your listings. Deleting a product from Meesho is a straightforward process, but it’s essential to understand the right steps to ensure that you do it properly without affecting your seller account negatively.

In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the process of how to delete a product on Meesho, and offer tips for managing your product catalog effectively. Plus, we’ll highlight how EcomGrowSupport can assist you in handling this task smoothly.

Why You Might Need to Delete a Product on Meesho

Before we dive into the “how,” let’s first understand why deleting a product from your Meesho catalog may be necessary:

Poor Sales Performance: If a product isn’t selling well, it might be time to remove it from your listings to make room for more in-demand items.
Stock Issues: If a product is permanently out of stock and you have no plans to restock it, deleting it ensures your catalog stays accurate.
Quality Concerns: If the product is facing quality issues, removing it temporarily or permanently might be the best course of action.
Rebranding or Updating: If the product is being updated or rebranded, you may need to delete the old listing to avoid confusion.

Deleting a product on Meesho is a simple process, but there are a few important steps to follow:

1. Log in to Your Meesho Seller Panel

To delete a product from your Meesho catalog, you’ll first need to log in to your Meesho Supplier Panel.

Go to the Meesho Supplier Panel: Visit the official Meesho Seller Dashboard at https://supplier.meesho.in on your browser.
Enter Your Credentials: Use your registered mobile number or email address and password to log in.

2. Navigate to Your Product Listings

Once you’re logged into the Supplier Panel, you need to find the product you wish to delete:

Go to ‘Manage Products’: From the left-hand menu on your dashboard, click on “Manage Products”. This will take you to a list of all the products you’ve listed on Meesho.
Search for the Product: You can use the search bar or filter options to find the specific product you want to delete. You can search by product name, category, or SKU.

3. Select the Product to Delete

Once you’ve found the product you want to remove:

Click on the Product: Click on the product name or SKU to open the product details page.
Check Product Status: Ensure that the product isn’t associated with any pending orders or returns before deletion. If it’s linked to an ongoing order, it’s best to wait until the order is fulfilled or canceled.

4. Delete the Product

To delete the product from your listings, follow these steps:

Click on ‘Delete Product’: On the product details page, you’ll find an option to “Delete Product” or “Disable Listing”.
Confirm Deletion: A pop-up window will appear asking you to confirm the deletion. Ensure that you have reviewed the product details carefully before proceeding.
Final Confirmation: After clicking “Delete,” your product will be removed from the Meesho catalog, and it will no longer be visible to customers on the platform.

5. Check for Any Pending Orders or Returns

If you delete a product with pending orders, those orders will still need to be fulfilled. It’s important to ensure that you’ve processed all existing orders before removing the product entirely. You can check your “Order Management” section in the Supplier Panel for any pending orders related to the product.

What Happens After You Delete a Product on Meesho?

Once a product is deleted from your Meesho catalog:

Product Listing Removed: The product will no longer appear on Meesho’s marketplace and will not be available for customers to buy.
Order Fulfillment: If you have pending orders, you’ll still be responsible for fulfilling them. Deleting a product does not affect orders that have already been placed.
Inventory Updates: Deleting a product will also automatically update your inventory in the Meesho system.

Alternatives to Deleting a Product

If you’re hesitant about permanently deleting a product, consider these alternatives:

Disable the Listing: Instead of deleting the product, you can disable the listing. This makes the product temporarily unavailable for sale while keeping it in your catalog. This is a good option if you plan to restock or re-list the product in the future.
Pause Listings: You can pause specific variants of a product (for example, certain sizes or colors) instead of deleting the entire product.

Tips for Managing Your Product Catalog Effectively

Managing your product catalog is essential for running a successful Meesho business. Here are a few tips to keep in mind:

Regularly Review Your Listings: Periodically review your products to identify slow movers or out-of-stock items.
Use High-Quality Product Images: Ensure your product images are clear and meet Meesho’s requirements. Well-presented products tend to attract more customers.
Optimize Product Titles and Descriptions: Make sure your product titles and descriptions are optimized for search on the Meesho platform. Include relevant keywords to improve visibility.
Monitor Performance: Regularly check the performance of your products. If certain products are underperforming, consider updating the description or running promotions before deciding to delete them.
Bulk Actions for Deletion: If you need to delete multiple products at once, use Meesho’s bulk actions feature. This allows you to update or remove several products in one go.
