Dokan Pro is a WordPress plugin designed to create and manage a multi-vendor online marketplace. It allows you to transform your WordPress website into a platform where multiple vendors can sign up, create their own stores, and sell products collectively.
This type of marketplace model has gained popularity due to its potential to offer a wide variety of products to customers while allowing individual vendors to manage their own stores and inventory.
