# 0002: One-to-Many Brand Assignment

## Status
Accepted

## Context
We are introducing Brands to the catalog. We need to decide how products map to brands.

## Decision
We will use a one-to-many relationship: a `Brand` has many `Products`, and a `Product` has exactly one `Brand`.

## Consequences
* **Simplicity:** The relationship is a simple foreign key on the `Product` table.
* **Limitation:** We cannot natively support product collaborations where an item is equally owned by two distinct brands.
