If you want to display your product manufacturer just after your product ranking stars, you'll have to edit the "show_tabular" file of the "product" view of your front-end template through the page "Hikashop->Display->Views", and add this code :
if($this->config->get('manufacturer_display', 0) && !empty($this->element->product_manufacturer_id)){
$class = hikashop_get('class.category');
$manufacturer = $class->get($this->element->product_manufacturer_id);
global $Itemid;
$categoryClass = hikashop_get('class.category');
$categoryClass->addAlias($manufacturer);
echo JText::_('MANUFACTURER').': '.'<a href="'.hikashop_completeLink('category&task=listing&cid='.$manufacturer->category_id.'&name='.$manufacturer->alias.'&Itemid='.$Itemid).'">'.$manufacturer->category_name.'</a>';
}
just after these lines :
<div id="hikashop_product_vote_mini" class="hikashop_product_vote_mini">
<?php
//LAYOUT show the rating stars
if($this->params->get('show_vote_product') == '-1'){
$this->params->set('show_vote_product',$config->get('show_vote_product'));
}
if($this->params->get('show_vote_product')){
echo $layout_vote_mini;
}
?>
</div>
<?php
