Wholesale site scraper – get data extracted and prepared for import

eScraper is a data extraction service that is designed to quickly and easily download inventory, pricing and product information from a wholesale website for you. Moreover, if you plan on further importing data into your shopping cart, CRM or other software, you’ll get a file configured for the seamless import.

What type of data can be extracted from a wholesale portal

eScraper can extract both simple and variable products with their details:

• SKU
• Name
• Description
• Stock status
• Stock (available quantity)
• Wholesale price
• Brand
• Category
• Description, and other available data.
• Image URLs (for simple and variable products)

Note: If variations have different prices, most likely it will require additional tweaking of the scraper and, therefore, will be charged differently.

If you need to extract all available products, you can just write so in the order form:

If you, though, need products from specific pages, collections, categories, new arrivals or bestsellers, list them in the request form. For more accuracy, you can do the search on your vendor website, copy the link with the results and send this direct link to us:

Scraping of password-protected wholesale websites

Often, wholesale websites allow access to the products’ pricing and stock only for registered clients:

Therefore, to be able to scrape password-protected data, we’ll need your login details to your supplier’s website.

Adjustments to the data before import

Besides data extraction itself, eScraper can make a number of adjustments to make the file perfect for you. Thus, we can add brand name to the product title and descriptions, add margin to the price, pull out product code from a description and put it into a SKU field.

More complex custom edits are also possible. For instance, if one supplier has more detailed descriptions and another provides videos or better images, we can try to match data from them to provide you complete product listings.

Import CSV with wholesale products and prices

Scraping data from a wholesaler’s website is usually only the first step in the process of filling your store catalog. The next step most probably will be to import items to your store admin. If so, you can specify the name of your shopping cart in the order form, and we’ll provide a file formatted for its import tool.

By default, eScraper provides import files for Shopify, WooCommerce, PrestaShop, and Magento carts. Here is an example of data pulled from a wholesale website and formatted for import to Shopify.
