          The ProductCategoryBuilder is used to create ProductCategory objects.
         
      
        
          It provides methods to specify the bid, name, and value of the product category.
         
      
        
          The build() method finalizes the creation process and returns a ProductCategoryOperation.
         
      
        
          The withName() method is required to specify the name of the category before building.
