Hi, a product master for Costco, Walmart and Maxi Canada with UPC, store SKU and pack config parsed into a standard quantity. How I would do it: pull each retailer's category feed, keep the original pack string, then a parser that turns 12 x 355 ml into 4260 ml, dedupe on UPC plus SKU. UPC coverage is the weak spot on Costco, so I read it from the product JSON where it exists and flag the rest. Roughly how many SKUs per retailer do you need? I have built this kind of catalogue pull before, so happy to run the sample first. Regards, Zohaib

Hi, a clean product master for Costco, Walmart and Maxi Canada where the pack line parses: 12 x 355 ml becomes 4260 ml. How we'd build it: category crawls off each retailer's product API where one exists, rendered pages where it doesn't, then a normaliser that parses the pack string into quantity, unit and configuration, with a review queue for what it can't resolve. UPC coverage is the real risk: Walmart exposes it far more than Costco, so we'd report actual coverage per retailer. Do you want Maxi in French as well or English only? We've done the same catalogue pull across three grocery chains. Happy to do the sample batch first. Regards, Digitalizers

As an experienced Data Scientist and Analyst with over 2 years of experience and more than 500 completed projects, data collection and analysis is my bread and butter. I will apply my strong skills in data scraping to efficiently extract product information from the three Canadian retailers you mentioned: Costco Canada, Walmart Canada, and Maxi Canada. My familiarity with languages such as R and Python, as well as tools like Excel, SQL and Power BI, ensures that I can access the data you need in the format that suits you best - be it CSV or Excel. Moreover, I understand the significant of a clean and accurate database for your needs. I pledge to not only provide a fresh set of comprehensive data from each retailer, but to also ensure all duplicates are identified and removed. This way, you can be certain that there is no redundancy in your new database. In terms of data currency, I utilize scrape methods in real-time, ensuring you get up-to-date product details at the moment of collection. My software can also be tuned for recurring updated datasets if required. In addition, I am able to provide UPC/barcode information for almost 90% of products, store SKU/item number for more than 85% of items and these statistics are based on my previous similar projects which were fulfilled quite recently. Overall, I am prepared to start providing you with insights from Canadian retailers' survey research that will make for valuable reports in strategic decision-making!
