How do I set-up my store

Congratulations on becoming a First Nations Gifts Vendor Seller!
This is a good place to begin before you start setting up your brand store on First Nations Gifts.

WHAT ARE THE STORE FEATURES?

Each vendor has a unique brand presence and ‘back of store’  which is editable and allows you to build your own brand area within the First Nations Gifts Marketplace.

Vendors can have up to ten images per product, because the more quality images a product has, the better it sells.
Vendors products are automatically featured in our special categories sections such as Trending items, Best sellers, Most Popular and across our social media channels.

Vendor Sellers have the opportunity to promote themselves on the First Nations Gifts homepage and in the Featured Products and Brands sections to drive traffic directly to their products or brand store. Your vendor brand logo will appear in the Brand Directory and customers can filter products by brand.
