Multiple users have requested a tagging system to filter the OAR by groups of contributors specific to their interest

Overview

Multiple users have requested an additional tag to enable them to filter their searches of the OAR by groups of users specific to their interest.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Certain user groups would like to be able to see at a glance which contributors to the OAR fall within their scope of interest.

Examples include:

• Membership bodies, such as the German Partnership for Sustainable Textiles, whose members include brands, NGOs, certifying schemes etc
• Retailers such as Zalando who would like to see all of the Zalando brands on the OAR through one quick search

Describe the solution you'd like

• A tag / filter mechanism for certain users to filter searches by their specific needs.

Additional Context

Users requesting this would be prepared to pay for the development of these additional filters.

Noting here that I received an additional request for a tagging mechanism from a brand which would like to tag the sub-brands within its group on the OAR
