Note: you can also add a brand by importing a file with product data — brands that are not on the website will be created automatically. However, you need to specify a link, add a logo, and enable it in the Website → Pages → Brands section.

How to specify the product brand

You can specify the brand of the product in a convenient way for you.

Manually in the product settings

Go to the Products section of the admin panel and select the desired product. In the Product description → Basic information subsection, select Brand from the drop-down menu.

Attention: when importing, it is important to specify the brand name accurately. Any discrepancy will result in the creation of a new brand (for example, the Adidas and Adias brands will be created by the system as two different companies).
