Facebook is adding new tools to help businesses share supply chain details with customers. The company says this move will make it easier for people to see where products come from and how they are made. Users will find this information directly on business pages and in product listings.

The new feature lets companies upload data about their suppliers, materials, and production practices. This includes facts like factory locations, labor conditions, and environmental impact. Facebook hopes this will build trust between shoppers and brands.
Many shoppers now want to know more about the products they buy. They care about ethical sourcing and sustainability. By offering this transparency, Facebook aims to meet that demand. Businesses that use the tool may stand out from competitors who do not share similar details.
The system works with existing Facebook business tools. Companies can update their supply chain info as needed. Facebook will not verify every claim but encourages honesty and accuracy. It also plans to add warnings if information seems misleading.
Early tests show positive reactions from both sellers and buyers. Some small businesses say it helps them tell their story better. Customers say they feel more confident making purchases when they understand a product’s background.

Facebook is rolling out the feature globally over the next few months. It will be free for all business accounts. The company says this is part of its larger effort to support responsible commerce online.
