MPN

Manufacturer part number. The vendor's own ID for a product.

What it means

An MPN, or manufacturer part number, is the ID a manufacturer gives a product. The same item can carry a different SKU at each distributor but keeps one MPN.

Why it matters

MPNs are how you compare price and stock for the same item across distributors. Matching on MPN avoids quoting the wrong part.
