Removing "brands" from instagram shopping

Yeah, this is ridiculous. I have 1,000’s of products and the only way to solve this problem is to go into each and everyone, and then remove the vendor name!? Not only is that is a massive amount of work to do. I don’t see how this would even work for me because I do consignment and wholesale, so it is imperative that I have correct reporting. If I remove the vendor name, how will I go about getting sales reports that show who sold what? There isn’t even an option to add a Tags column in the reporting, so putting the vendor name there doesn’t work either. I have been trying to figure this out for months now and I am getting absolutely nowhere. Ugh.

Why would Shopify think we want our vendor names out there? Do they not realize how easy it is for my competitors to figure out where I buy my products from? I have two competitors close by that keep copying me and they’re starting to sell what I sell. This is a HUGE issue!!! I have to start looking at other platforms because this is insane.
