MFC
What is MFC?
Amazon Manufacturing Central (MFC) is an Amazon-facing portal where manufacturers and brand owners can upload, verify, and manage detailed product information - even if they don’t sell directly to Amazon.
MFC allows manufacturers to:
- Share accurate technical specs, images, and descriptions
- Ensure consistency across ASINs listed by third-party sellers or distributors
- Improve product discoverability and detail page quality
- Reduce errors in category mapping, compliance, and listing setup
Why MFC matters:
- Helps Amazon maintain a high-quality, standardized product catalog
- Supports brands that don’t sell directly on Amazon but want control over how their products appear
- Can boost conversion rates by improving listing content and accuracy
- Enhances support for programs like A+ Content, Brand Registry, and product compliance
💡 Example: A kitchen appliance manufacturer uses MFC to upload accurate wattage, certifications, and images - which are then used across all listings of that model, no matter who sells it.
In short:
MFC (Amazon Manufacturing Central) is a portal that enables manufacturers to directly manage and enhance product data on Amazon - improving catalog quality and customer experience.
