# Create Product Store

In HotWax Commerce, managing multiple product stores is valuable for retailers with diverse brands. Each product store can be tailored to represent a specific retail brand, enabling efficient and customized management. This feature streamlines operations to meet the unique needs of each retail brand.

When retailers deploy HotWax Commerce, a default product store is automatically created. However, if a retailer has multiple brands, additional product stores need to be created.

## Step 1: Setup basic profile

To create a product store in the HotWax Order Management System, follow these steps:

1. Log in to the [company.hotwax.io](https://company.hotwax.io) app using your credentials.
2. Navigate to the Find Product Store page and click on the "Create new product store" button.
3. This action will guide you through a product store creation flow.
4. Fill out the initial form with the following details:

| Field               | Description                                                                      |
| ------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Now, you'll set up additional configurations for your product store:

| Configuration       | Description                                                                   |
