Web Scraping Competitor Webshops for Price and Product Comparison

In this project, I helped a company collect and compare product data from competitor webshops. The goal was to understand how their products, prices, and assortment matched up in the market — something that was previously done manually.

What I did:

  • Created scripts to automatically scrape competitor webshops, collecting data such as:

  • Product names

  • Prices

  • Product descriptions/specifications

  • Availability (in stock or not)

  • Matched scraped products to the company’s existing items for comparison.

  • Exported the data into Excel files for easy review and analysis.

The result:

  • The company could see how their prices compared to others in real time.

  • They spotted missing products in their assortment.

  • They used the insights to adjust prices and plan better offerings.

This simple but effective solution saved hours of manual work and gave the company a clearer view of their position in the market.
