Navigating the Marketplace & Product Listings

The Faktorist Marketplace

The marketplace is the heart of Faktorist — a searchable directory of products from verified suppliers worldwide.

Browsing Categories

Products are organised into industry categories (Agriculture, Manufacturing, Chemicals, etc.). Each category has subcategories for precise filtering. Browse from the Marketplace link in the main navigation.

Understanding HS Codes

Every product is tagged with an HS (Harmonized System) code — a standardised international classification used in customs. Use the Tools → HS Code Search to look up the correct code for any product.

Product Comparison

Select up to 4 products to compare side by side. The comparison view highlights differences in pricing, MOQ, certifications, lead time, and supplier location.

Featured Products

Suppliers can purchase featured product slots for premium visibility. Featured products appear at the top of category pages and in search results with a highlighted badge.

Product Q&A

Each product listing has a Q&A section where buyers can ask questions. Suppliers receive notifications and can respond publicly, building transparency for all potential buyers.
