Scrape Pick n Pay With a Managed Team

    Pick n Pay pages, filters, fields and a schedule

  2. We run the scrapers

    Built, monitored and repaired by our team

  3. You receive the data

Send us the scope: a set of Shop Aisles, a brand list, a basket of barcodes, or everything flagged as a special this week. Our engineers write the Pick n Pay crawlers, schedule them and keep them working when pnp.co.za moves a badge or renames an aisle. Access to the site and its protections is handled on our side as part of the service.

A guest on pnp.co.za is asked for delivery details to see local pricing, and can skip the step to browse the default prices. We settle with you which prices the project needs before the first run. You get a free project assessment, a sample on request, and documentation of every column with the dataset.

Pick n Pay Data We Extract From Each Product

A Pick n Pay product page ends in /p/ and a long product code with a unit suffix, such as _EA for items sold by the each. The same code appears on the page as the SKU, next to the barcode, which gives two keys: one to follow the item on pnp.co.za and one to match it to your own catalogue.

  • IdentitySKU, barcode, product URL, name with pack size as printed, brand in capitals as the page prints it, and the aisle path from Shop Aisles down to the leaf category.
  • Pricesthe price a shopper pays now, the higher regular price shown beside it, and the promotional line such as 2 For R100.00 (Smart Price) or Coffee Club with its own amount.
  • BadgesSMART SHOPPER, WEB DEAL and SAVE, plus deal families such as Collectaboks, recorded as separate flags rather than one text field.
  • Promotion windowthe Valid from and until dates printed under a promotional price, so each deal has a start and an end.
  • Limitspurchase caps such as Max 10 per order where the card shows them.
  • Product infoDescription, Features, Usage, Storage and Ingredients from the Product Info section, and the image links.
  • Neighboursthe We think you may like these and Customers also bought these carousels, as lists of linked SKUs.

Category and search pages show the same cards with the result count and a Sort by control, so coverage can start from an aisle, a keyword or your list of barcodes.

Pick n Pay Price Tracker and Weekly Specials

Pick n Pay Price Tracker and Weekly Specials

Pick n Pay prices change often: Smart Shopper offers run for set windows, multi-buy deals come and go, and the category pages themselves are titled as Smart Price Specials. A Pick n Pay price tracker is a dated run repeated on your schedule, keyed on the SKU, which turns the paying price, the regular price and the badges into a price history per product. With it you can track Pick n Pay Smart Shopper prices across promotion windows and see how deep each one went.

Coverage beyond one product page:

  • Prices this week and prices todaya weekly specials file built from badge-filtered aisles, or a daily snapshot for a fixed basket.
  • Liquor pricesthe Liquor Store aisle with Wine and Bubbly, Spirits, the Bulk Liquor Shop and Exclusive to PnP lines.
  • Price check basketsyour list of barcodes matched every run, with a column that flags new, changed and missing items.
  • Delivery slotsthe earliest slot the header shows, recorded with each run for service monitoring.

Pick n Pay is a South African supermarket chain, and pnp.co.za is its online grocery store. A banner at the top tells the visitor they are shopping Grocery and offers a switch to Hypermarket and Clothing, which open separate PnP Home and PnP Clothing sites with their own catalogues.

The grocery catalogue sits under Shop Aisles: Food Cupboard, Fresh Fruit and Vegetables, Meat, Poultry and Seafood, Milk, Dairy and Eggs, Liquor Store, Baby, Health and Wellness, Pet Care, Electronics and Office, Flowers and Plants and more. Each aisle splits into named shelves, and aisle and shelf addresses end in a numeric id.

Smart Shopper is the Pick n Pay loyalty programme, and its prices are shown openly on product cards with a SMART SHOPPER badge beside the regular price. Delivery is arranged through the address panel in the header and the asap! app; until an address is added, the site reminds the visitor that product availability and local pricing depend on the area. The header also links to Buy Again, Favourites and a Shopping List for signed-in shoppers - account features we leave out.

What Pick n Pay Prices Are Used For

Pick n Pay publishes its card prices and its non-card prices side by side on the same product card. That makes the data useful well beyond a price list.

  • Loyalty price gapThe distance between the SMART SHOPPER price and the regular price, product by product, shows how much of the discount depends on the card.
  • Promotion calendarsValid from and until dates give every deal a start and an end, so a supplier sees how long its lines sit on promotion and when competitors take their turn.
  • Multi-buy analysisOffers such as 2 For R100.00 or Collectaboks change the effective unit price; parsed into quantity and amount, they can be compared with single-item prices.
  • Barcode matchingWith the barcode on every product, a manufacturer or a competing retailer joins Pick n Pay data to its own catalogue without fuzzy name matching.
  • Private label watchPnP and PnP Live Well own-brand lines sit next to national brands in the same aisle, priced against them.
  • Basket cost trackingA fixed basket priced every week gives a researcher a consumer price series from one of the country's big grocers.

About ScrapeIt

ScrapeIt collects data from websites as a managed service. We design the crawlers, run them and fix them, so your team only works with the result. Grocery retailers are familiar ground: loyalty prices next to shelf prices, multi-buy offers, promotions with a date range. For Pick n Pay we deliver CSV, XLSX or JSON, or push the files to Amazon S3, Google Drive or FTP; an MCP server is available on request. Plans start from EUR 169 a month, or EUR 199 for a one-time extract.

FAQ

Still unsure? Write to info@scrapeit.io

Do you offer a Pick n Pay API for prices and promotions?

Yes. The ScrapeIt Pick n Pay API serves SKU, barcode, name, the paying price, the regular price and the SMART SHOPPER and WEB DEAL flags as JSON from an endpoint we host, updated on the schedule you choose. A JSON feed, XLSX files or a load into your database work as well.

Is it legal to scrape Pick n Pay?

Yes. Prices, Smart Shopper offers, promotion dates, barcodes and ingredients are visible to any guest on pnp.co.za. We collect only publicly available data - the same product cards and pages anyone can open on Pick n Pay - and we collect it legally.

Can you deliver a Pick n Pay price list every week?

Yes. We run the aisles or the basket you choose on a fixed day and deliver one file per run with the same columns. Each row carries the run date, so this week's list lines up with last week's for comparison.

Can the Pick n Pay database include Smart Shopper prices?

Yes, as the site shows them. Product cards print the Smart Shopper price with its badge next to the regular price, and the product page adds the Valid from and until dates. We collect both prices into separate columns and never use a loyalty account to do it.

Do you also cover PnP Hypermarket and PnP Clothing?

Yes, as separate sources. The Hypermarket and Clothing switches on pnp.co.za lead to their own sites, PnP Home and PnP Clothing, with different catalogues. We collect each into its own file or table, tagged with the site, so grocery prices are never mixed with the other two catalogues.
