Catalyst channel storefront brands is not working when I create a Catalyst storefront and browse brands

[itsRemcoAI]

We really appreciate the help making Catalyst better. Every issue helps!

Describe the bug
'Brands' is working incorrectly when a fresh Catalyst store is created **with sample data enabled.
The following content are screenshots to visualize the problem of the default catalyst storefront.
(Notice: this is NOT the issue of local development. This is from the generated storefront link from BigCommerce)

This is the default 'OFS' brand which lists 0 products.
This is what shows in the backend products.
In the default Cornerstone theme it lists the brands correctly.
In 'Categories' there is a seperate 'channel' section where you can choose to create a category for the default storefront or the created catalyst storefront. This is **NOT** the case with products so it's really unclear.

Also, when creating a catalyst project with sample data, somehow some products are placed in the catalyst categories

But when I look into the category section, I can't find any of the catalyst categories so how did they end up there?

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Run 'npm create @bigcommerce/catalyst@latest'
2. Follow the installation steps
3. Choose install with Sample Data
4. Go to the generated catalyst storefront link
5. Scroll down to brands and press one
6. See error

Please link to a repo that can be used to reproduce this issue, if possible. It'll help fix the bug faster.

Expected behavior
Page returning a message that 0 brands are found
