Creating a "Pack of" Product Listing


📦 Creating “Pack Of” Product Listings (Updated Guide)

With the introduction of fulfilment fees on Makro Marketplace, some products are no longer financially viable to sell as single units. To maintain healthy margins and reduce the impact of fulfilment costs, we encourage sellers to create “Pack of” listings — grouping multiple units into one product listing.

⚠️ Important: If you already have a single unit listing for the item, you should create a new, separate listing for the “Pack of” version. You will also need to use a different SKU ID. If the single unit is no longer feasible to sell, it should be made inactive.

This article explains how to correctly list a “Pack of” product and avoid common mistakes that can mislead buyers.


💡 Why List a “Pack of”?

Fulfilment fees are charged per product listing, not per unit inside the listing. That means:

  • 1 unit = 1 fulfilment fee
  • Pack of 4 = 1 fulfilment fee (for all 4 items)

This significantly improves the economics for low-cost or lightweight items, like:

  • Basic hygiene products
  • Pantry items
  • Household products

Examples include toothpaste, soap bars, sachets, and sponges — where selling in packs helps improve your margin.


✅ How to List a “Pack Of” Correctly

When creating your listing, you’ll be asked to fill in two important attributes:

  • Pack Size = Total number of items in the pack (e.g. 4 bars of soap)
  • Quantity = The weight, volume, or size of a single item (e.g. 200g per bar)

🔍 Example 1: Correct Listing

Product: Pack of 4 soap bars, each 200g

  • Pack Size: 4
  • Quantity: 200g
  • Title Generated: 4 x 200g

✅ This is correct. The buyer clearly sees that they’re buying 4 bars, each weighing 200g.


⚠️ Example 2: Incorrect Listing

Mistake: Total weight (800g) entered into Quantity field

  • Pack Size: 4
  • Quantity: 800g
  • Title Generated: 4 x 800g → ❌ Misleading (Looks like 3.2kg total!)

This creates confusion and risks order cancellations or returns.


🖼️ Images for “Pack Of” Listings

You can use product imagery that shows:

  • âś… All items in the pack together (recommended)
  • âś… A single item only (also acceptable)

Just ensure the image is high-quality, clear, and accurately represents what the customer will receive.


📏 Shipping Details

When entering package dimensions and weight, use the total values for the full pack. These determine how the fulfilment fee is calculated and how your item is shipped.
