What is a product category?
A product category organises your products in your online store by grouping similar products together.
Why organising products into categories is important?
Organising your products into categories helps your customers quickly navigate your online store. Categories make it easier for your customers to find what they're looking for. You can create categories from scratch or define them when adding a product.
