A production partner refers to a manufacturing partner that supports the seller during the product production process on Etsy. For sellers working with the print-on-demand model, this information must be correctly stated in Etsy listings.

If the seller does not produce the product themselves and works with a production partner for printing, preparation, or shipping, this information must be added correctly.
Production partners like Podbul support sellers with product supply, printing, preparation, and shipping processes. Therefore, adding the production partner information correctly helps the Etsy store appear more transparent, professional, and compliant with Etsy’s rules.
It is important for stores selling with the print-on-demand model on Etsy to correctly state their production partner information. Missing or incorrect information may negatively affect Etsy store health.


You can create a new production partner from this area. When adding a production partner, the name of the production partner, location, how they support your business, and their role in the production process should be stated correctly.
