Project description:
"I am rebuilding part of my Shopify storefront and need expert help to tighten up both data handling and the browsing experience.

Search & Navigation
• One consolidated search bar that lets shoppers look up product names, ingredients, and full descriptions in either Japanese or English.
• Toggle buttons should let users limit results to Pharmaceuticals, Beauty & Supplements, or Web/Other.
• Pharmaceutical items must surface only through search—never through menu navigation—while all other items remain discoverable by both search and category menus.
• Results must honor Japanese-and-English queries interchangeably.

Categories & Popular Products
For Beauty & Supplements and Web/Other I want clean category and sub-category pages that automatically show a “Popular Products” block (5–7 items) inside each section.

Data Import Pipeline
I receive supplier price lists as Excel files. Your task is to map those sheets to a Shopify-ready CSV that includes:
– supplier cost → retail price conversion
– fixed JPY pricing where specified
– shipping origin & method indicators
– expiry dates
Once the template is locked in, importing future sheets should be a one-click job.

UI/UX Touch-ups
• Ensure the search button is always visible on desktop and mobile.
• Add distinct homepage blocks for News / Announcements and Special Offers / New Arrivals.
• Fix the existing wishlist pop-up so it launches consistently without obstructing checkout.
• Reuse my current header, footer, and policy pages exactly as they are.

Deliverables
1. Fully functional multilingual search with toggle filters in production.
2. Category structure and Popular Products blocks live.
3. Automated Excel-to-Shopify CSV importer (macro, script, or app) documented for future use.
4. UI refinements deployed and tested across common browsers and mobile breakpoints.
5. Short hand-off guide covering search management and the import workflow.
