How to group of suppliers?

[Martin Y]

Different categories of products associated with different suppliers.

Different categories of products can be grouped.

But suppliers could not be grouping together such as
Food
Fruit
...

Hundreds of suppliers are very hard to be selected.

 

Any solution？

 

Thanks for help

Not really, suppliers and manufacturers are very basic in PrestaShop, you can't have for example Manufacturer and Brand etc. I think that you can use categories for suppliers, that's it.

You mean on filter options front-office, or where ?

OK. Here how I managed it:

 

 

On back-officve I have a double category tree. One visible for the shops, and others not visible for the shop. This non visible are named in suppliers. I can buy the products on different suppliers at same time, with of course also different prices. MY SUPPLIERS ARE NOT THE MANUFACTURER(S NAME) IN THIS CASE.....

 

What I do: i import all products to each supplier, with EAN. So what happens I have the EAN as central management of my stock and it is possible that the product is more than twice in database. This is the only way to manage same products delivered by different suppliers. Is this what you are looking for ?

 

BTW. Online for the shop I have of course the product only once and I took the supplier of the best price and only this one is active product for customers purchase, indifferent who is supplying me the product at the end.

It is very good idea to double category tree which one for products and other one for suppliers.
