Catalog Permission for Magento 2

It is so true that merchants do not always want to show categories for all customers. Take the case of Barbara Shan - the owner of a jewelry store, for example.

The situation is Barbara is running a unified store for both retailers and wholesalers. Once, she created two different categories for the two and tried to differ them by category name and the inside-catalog content. For some reasons, “Retailers go to Wholesalers’ category while the Wholesalers visit the category for Retailer instead. And, they keep complaining about that confusion.” She faced the need to send particular customers to the right place at the very first start. Fortunately, she found us!

Magento 2 Catalog Permission extension by BSSCommerce might not be the richest-in-feature. Yet, if you find an easy-to-config solution to control over the catalog access by customer group, this module becomes the best in budget and quality from Magento Select Extension Builder.
