A grocery e-commerce operation built from fragmented supplier data

Challenge

Product details, pricing and stock lived across many supplier and retailer websites, with no shared source of truth. The business needed a real storefront, but the catalog had to be assembled and kept current first.

The business wanted to sell online, but its product data did not live in one place — pricing, availability and details were scattered across dozens of supplier and retailer sites, with nothing keeping them current.

FAQ

About this work

How do prices and stock stay current?

They are refreshed on a schedule against the source data and pushed to the storefront, so what customers see reflects what is actually available without anyone updating it by hand.

Did the catalog have to be built before the store could launch?

Yes — we assembled and enriched the catalog from 50+ fragmented sources first, then launched the storefront and delivery operations on top of that clean, automated product data.
