How to Import WooCommerce Composite Products

Composite Products facilitates customers to dynamically group the required products with the flexibility of product quantities.
For example: If the customer is buying a desktop computer, he can select the number of Hard disks or CPU cabins required. Here Hard disk or CPU cabins need to be present on your online store as an individual product. Then you can add the Desktop computer as a composite product that contains Hard disk or CPU Cabins as the component.
