Google LIA: Turn Your In-Store Inventory into Traffic.

Google Local Inventory Ads (Google LIA) show nearby shoppers the products available in physical stores. The format connects online product discovery with store visits, Click & Collect and omnichannel sales.

What are Google Local Inventory Ads?

Google LIA connects a retailer’s product catalog to its physical stores and their real-time inventory. This enables Google to show consumers products available nearby, directly in their search results. A powerful omnichannel solution that turns online purchase intent into in-store traffic and sales.

Local Visibility

Show nearby shoppers which products are available in store right now.

Qualified In-Store Traffic

Give shoppers the product, price, distance and pickup information before they visit.

Seamless Omnichannel Experience

Connect online discovery with in-store availability, Click & Collect and local conversion goals.

Operational Insight

Reveal the inventory, pricing and location data issues that quietly reduce your local reach.
