Learn how Actowiz Solutions helped Indian retailers meet festive demand for sweets & snacks using real-time grocery data, scraping & analytics.
India’s festive season—from Raksha Bandhan and Ganesh Chaturthi to Navratri and Diwali—triggers a massive surge in demand for sweets, snacks, and gift hampers. Retailers, both traditional and digital, struggle to strike a balance between availability, pricing, and supply chain efficiency during these critical months.
This case study explores how Actowiz Solutions, a global leader in eCommerce web scraping and real-time data intelligence, empowered Indian grocery retailers and quick-commerce platforms to monitor availability, track competitor pricing, forecast demand, and manage stock levels for sweets and snacks across multiple cities during the 2024 festive season.
During Indian festivals, sweets like kaju katli, gulab jamun, and laddoo, as well as snacks like namkeen, chips, chocolates, and dry fruits, experience a 200–300% surge in demand compared to normal months.
Retailers needed real-time data insights to forecast demand, manage inventory dynamically, and capture festive sales opportunities.
Actowiz Solutions deployed its enterprise-grade web scraping and data extraction infrastructure to deliver real-time grocery intelligence across 50+ Indian cities.
Historical festive season data + real-time search trends were combined to predict product demand by SKU and region.
Competitor pricing, discounting, and promotional bundles were tracked across various platforms, enabling retailers to adjust their strategies accordingly.
Actowiz tracked stock availability across dark stores & warehouses to avoid last-minute shortages.
Review scraping and sentiment analysis helped identify which sweets/snacks were most appreciated and which faced quality complaints.
