class MerchantDependencyProvider extends SprykerMerchantDependencyProvider
{
    /**
     * @return array<\Spryker\Zed\MerchantExtension\Dependency\Plugin\MerchantExpanderPluginInterface>
     */
    protected function getMerchantExpanderPlugins(): array
    {
        return [
            new MerchantCategoryMerchantExpanderPlugin(),
        ];

    {
        return [
            new MerchantCategoryMerchantSearchDataExpanderPlugin(),
        ];
    }
Verification
