How to List Products on Isokorigari Without Duplicates: The Master Catalogue Guide

Isokorigari keeps ONE master catalogue: before you create any product, search for it first, and if it already exists, add it to your store with your own price and stock instead of creating a duplicate.

This is the most important guide for every seller on Isokorigari.com. If you follow it, your products go live faster, buyers find you more easily, and the online marketplace stays clean and trustworthy. If you ignore it, your listings may be refused or removed.

What is the master catalogue?

The master catalogue is the single list of all products on Isokorigari. Each product in it appears once, with one product page: one name (in English with Kinyarwanda in brackets), one set of photos, specifications, options and one category. Many sellers can sell the same product. Each seller adds their own offer to that one product page.

Think of a real market. There is one kind of "Rice 25 kg" of a certain brand, but ten traders sell it at different prices. On Isokorigari, the buyer sees one product page for that rice, and below it all the sellers who offer it: "more sellers".

Step 1: Search the catalogue first (always)

Before creating anything, search the master catalogue in your seller dashboard, and also search the website at All products. Search by:

• Product name (try short words, for example "cement 50kg" instead of the full title)
• Brand
• Model number or code
• Size, volume, weight or pack size

Try two or three different searches. A product may be written slightly differently from how you call it.

Step 2: Is it the same product?

A product is the same when the name, brand, model and size match, with the same product identifier. Check carefully:

• Same brand? (for example the same TV brand)
• Same model? (the same model number)
• Same size or variant? (55 inch is not 43 inch; 1 litre is not 5 litres; 60x60 tiles are not 30x30)

Some products already have options such as colour, size, storage or pack size on one page. If your variant is one of those options, it is still the same product.

Step 3: If it exists, add it to your store

Do not create a new product. Open the existing product and choose to add it to your store. Then fill in your own selling details:

1. Price: your retail price in Rwf, and wholesale prices if you sell in bulk.
2. Stock: how many units you really have.
3. Minimum order quantity: the smallest quantity a buyer can order from you.
4. SKU: your own internal code, so you can find the item in your store room.
5. Condition: new, used or refurbished, honestly.
6. Shipping / delivery profile: where and how you deliver.
7. Warranty: if your offer includes a warranty, say how long.
8. Return information and your own description notes if allowed.

Save, and you are done. Your offer now appears on your shop page and in the marketplace under the existing category, with the "more sellers" offers. No duplicate, no waiting for a new product to be created.

Step 4: Only if it does not exist, create or request a new product

If after careful searching the product is truly not in the catalogue, you can create or request a new product. It is reviewed by the admin team before it goes live. Provide:

• A clear English name with the Kinyarwanda name in brackets
• Brand, model and size
• Good, real photos of the product
• Specifications and a clear description
• The right category

If the brand is missing, send a Brand Request. If no fitting category exists, send a Category Request. Both are approved by the admin team.

Why duplicates are not allowed

• Buyers get confused. Ten pages for the same phone, with different photos and names, make buyers unsure which one is real. They leave.
• Buyers cannot compare. With one page and "more sellers", buyers compare prices, delivery and ratings in one place. That is fair competition.
• SEO suffers. Search engines rank one strong page better than many weak copies. One page per product brings more visitors from search for everyone.
• Trust drops. A clean catalogue looks professional. Copies look like spam.
• Reviews stay together. All ratings and reviews of a product are on one page, which helps buyers decide.

Examples

Quick rules to remember

1. Search first, every time.
2. Same name, brand, model and size = same product: add it to your store.
3. Different size or model = a different product.
4. Create or request new products only when they do not exist.
5. Never copy a product just to get your own page.
