WooCommerce Show Product SubCategories
A client of mine has a category called “Brand”. Each product is assigned to a specific Brand subcategory e.g. Nike, Adidas, etc. The goal of this task was to show the “Brand” subcategories in the shop/category/loop pages as a way to help the user identify the brand name.
The same can be applied to showing ALL categories, so the user knows exactly to what section of the shop the product belong to. Great, let’s see how it’s done!

function tutoraspire_show_all_subcats() {
global $product;
$cats = get_the_terms( $product->get_id(), 'product_cat' );

if ( $term->parent == 116 ) {
echo $term->name;
