Organizing Product Categories
In the complex world of industrial maintenance, managing spare parts is a critical task. With thousands of references and different suppliers, it quickly becomes challenging for professionals to precisely find what they need. Through this article, discover the importance of product categories and why and how Kheoos structures them.
Product categorization is a major strategic tool for structuring this offering, simplifying searches, and saving time. This is the approach kheoos implements rigorously to provide its users with a smooth and intuitive experience when searching for parts.
Exhaustive identification of available references
At kheoos, one of the first important steps in managing maintenance parts is identifying the references available on the market. We have thoroughly examined over 85 million references from manufacturers, suppliers, and distributors globally.
This massive data volume reflects the diversity of parts needed for the maintenance, repair, and optimization of industrial equipment across all sectors.
To date, tens of thousands of references are directly offered on our kheoos market platform.
Product categorization: A strategic organization
To manage this vast amount of references, kheoos developed a categorization system based on a strict and intuitive hierarchy. By structuring the offering logically, we enable our users to more easily find the parts they need. On kheoos market, products are organized in several levels:
- Main categories
- Subcategories
- Sub-subcategories
Sometimes, sub-sub-subcategories are necessary when the field requires them (lots of “subs” indeed!).
This hierarchical approach is essential for ensuring clear navigation and quick access to information.
