Numerous themes that you can use on Shopify will display the vendor name on your product pages. This can be a great way to get customers to order more from certain vendors when you have a multivendor website. If you’re using the Shopify minimal theme, then you will get a great website with high speed, but it isn’t the best for numerous vendors. And you might want to take the vendor name off.

Or you might not want to display the vendor name alongside the product. Too many vendor names might direct customers to different websites and reduce the number of sales that you make.

So, if you are looking to remove the vendor name from your product pages, then you can follow these instructions here. Similar instructions can be used on numerous other themes as well. Or you can use other themes that allow you to remove this setting without any input from you.

However, for those that have to do this manually, this can be very hard. So here are the instructions for different themes. It’s just one type of customization you can do on Shopify.

Key Takeaways
1
In other Shopify themes, log in, go to Product Pages, and uncheck ‘Show Product Vendor’ to hide vendor names.
2
In the Minimal theme, go to Customize theme, select ‘Featured Collections’, and uncheck ‘Show Product Vendor’.
3
Alternatively, edit the ‘product.template.liquid’ file, replacing ‘product_vendor_enable’ with ‘product_vendor_disable’.

 

Step 1 - Log In

The first step is to log into your Shopify website using your credentials.

Step 2 - Product Pages

Now you need to go to the Product Pages option.

Step 3 - Uncheck Pages

Now you need to click on the box that is titled, ‘Show Product Vendor’. This will stop the vendor from being shown on your website.

The Shopify Minimal Theme

However, this option does not work on the Shopify Minimal theme. Therefore, there are some additional steps that you will need to take to make this work. Here are the instructions if you are using or planning to use the Shopify minimal theme on your store.

Step 1 - Log In

Log into your Shopify website with your credentials.

Step 2 - Customize Theme

Then you need to go to the Customize theme section and then click on the ‘Sections’ option.

Step 3 - Featured Collections

Now you need to select the option that reads ‘Featured Collections’.

Step 4 - Uncheck

Now you can click on the box that is titled ‘Show Product Vendor’.

Alternatively, you can use this option to remove the vendor name in the Minimal theme.

Step 5 - Edit Code

Within the ‘Edit Code’ area, go to the Sections folder.

Step 6 - Product Template File

Find and enter the file that reads ‘product.template.liquid’ file.

Step 7 - Find and Replace

Now find this line of code within the file:

{% if section.settings.product_vendor_enable %}

and replace it with this line.

{% if section.settings.product_vendor_disable %}

This will hide the vendor name next to your product. However, you might need to speak to the theme’s developer or hire a Shopify developer to help you get out of this. If you’re looking for another theme, we highly recommend Booster or Shoptimized.
