Element MANUFACTURER#
Basic information#
The MANUFACTURER element should contain the name of the product manufacturer, or the brand under which the product is known. The value from this element is used for filtering within categories on Heureka.
MANUFACTURER is not used for pairing products into product cards, which is why the manufacturer must also be included in the product name — i.e. in the PRODUCTNAME element — for every product in the feed.
