Shopify allows you to limit product quantities in your store for specific items in the Products section of the Shopify admin page.

Doing this can have a number of benefits. It helps you keep track of your inventory levels more effectively and reduces your risk of rapidly selling out of popular products. Plus, it can encourage customers to act fast by showing them only a limited quantity of each item remains.

To limit the number of products available for sale in your Shopify store, log in to your Shopify admin portal. Next:

  1. Go to the Products section of your admin page.
