How-to-Scrape-Product-Data-from-Sainsburys-and-Asda-A-Comprehensive-Guide

Introduction

In this blog post, we will explore how to scrape product data from two popular UK supermarket online shops: Sainsbury's and Asda. We will focus on specific categories from each store and gather important information such as product name, photo, description, ingredients, allergy advice/dietary requirements, weight, storage information, and price. Additionally, we will address the handling of duplicates and provide the final dataset in Excel format.

Scraping Data from Sainsbury's

To begin, we will scrape the following categories from Sainsbury's online shop:

  • Food Cupboard
  • Drinks (non-alcoholic)
  • Health & Beauty
  • Household
  • Pet
  • Home

Using a web scraping tool or library, we can extract the desired data from each category. The key information we need for each product includes:

  • Product name: The name of the item being sold.
  • Product photo: An image representing the product.
  • Product description: A brief overview of the product.
  • Ingredients: A list of ingredients used in the product.
  • Allergy Advice / Dietary Requirements: Any relevant information regarding allergies or dietary restrictions.
  • Weight: The weight or size of the product.
  • Storage Information: Recommended storage conditions for the product.
  • Price: The cost of the product.

Handling Duplicates

Since there may be duplicates between Sainsbury's and Asda, we will handle them by adding the price alongside the first entry we encounter. This ensures that each product is represented only once in the final dataset.

Next, we will scrape the following categories from Asda's online shop:

  • Food Cupboard
  • Drinks (non-alcoholic)
  • Health & Beauty
  • Laundry & Household
  • Pets
  • Home & Entertainment

Similar to the process used for Sainsbury's, we will gather the same set of information for each product in the above categories.

Creating the Excel Dataset

After scraping the data from both supermarkets, we will compile the information into an Excel spreadsheet. Each entry in the dataset will contain the following fields:

  • Product name
  • Product photo (image link)
  • Product description
  • Ingredients
  • Allergy Advice / Dietary Requirements
  • Weight
  • Storage Information
  • Price

By structuring the data in this manner, the resulting Excel file will provide a comprehensive overview of the products obtained from both supermarkets.
