Introduction
As regional consumer demand and online retail dynamics continue to evolve, having access to product-level availability insights becomes a critical asset for both sellers and marketplaces. In competitive e-commerce ecosystems like Romania and Eastern Europe, platforms like Emag play a dominant role in shaping local shopping behaviors. To stay competitive, brands require real-time visibility into SKU availability, out-of-stock trends, and regional inventory distribution.
This case study explores how Product Data Scrape enabled a leading FMCG client to map and monitor regional product availability across Emag using a real-time Emag data scraper. By leveraging customized web scraping infrastructure, we helped the client capture ongoing inventory shifts and availability fluctuations across cities and categories. The solution resulted in faster supply chain response, smarter restocking decisions, and sharper product availability analytics tailored for regional fulfillment.
The Client
Our client is a multinational FMCG company expanding aggressively in Eastern Europe. With hundreds of SKUs listed on e-commerce platforms, they rely heavily on local marketplaces to manage brand presence, pricing, availability, and fulfillment. Emag Romania served as their primary e-commerce partner in the region. However, the client lacked actionable visibility into regional product availability trends, often discovering stockouts or delays only after negative customer feedback or dropped orders. Their internal analytics systems depended largely on periodic Emag reports, which were often outdated or insufficiently detailed. As a result, they approached Product Data Scrape to build a solution that could deliver real-time, region-specific stock data and offer competitive inventory insights on the fly.
Key Challenges
The client faced several key challenges that impacted product availability optimization and regional planning. Firstly, Emag’s dynamic stock changes made it difficult to rely on historical data alone. Products frequently went out of stock or changed fulfillment regions, yet these changes weren’t captured until after sales were affected. Secondly, tracking inventory across multiple product categories and regions manually was inefficient. The client had no system to scrape Emag product availability data or monitor SKU movement across cities. Additionally, they lacked competitive intelligence on how rivals were performing across the same SKUs regionally. Even existing API data was delayed or fragmented, limiting real-time response capabilities. Another obstacle was aligning distribution priorities with demand pockets. Without granular insight, overstocking in low-demand zones and understocking in high-demand areas became common. The need to extract regional stock data from Emag listings at scale became essential for their operational efficiency and market competitiveness.
Key Solutions
Product Data Scrape delivered a powerful, automated infrastructure powered by a real-time Emag data scraper tailored for the client’s product portfolio. Our system was designed to scrape product availability by region on Emag, collecting stock status, listing region, and fulfillment zone data for each SKU. Using our Emag Real-Time Inventory Tracking API , we enabled continuous visibility into which SKUs were available in specific Romanian cities and which were running low or out of stock.
Through daily scraping sessions, our crawler was able to scrape regional SKUs and inventory on Emag, covering over 3,000 product listings across 20 categories. This structured data was delivered in clean formats via our e-commerce store data scraping services , integrated with the client’s internal dashboard. The project also utilized Emag stock trend forecasting with web data, helping the client anticipate regional stockouts based on seasonality, campaign activity, and competitor restocking behavior.
We combined this approach with web scraping Emag for stock & product trends, using past 24-month data to generate a heat map of high-demand regions. With our emag dataset regional availability scraper, the client could now proactively restock popular items before stockouts occurred, reallocate inventory between regions, and monitor competitors with similar SKUs. Leveraging our web scraping solutions , the client was also able to fine-tune local marketing campaigns based on SKU visibility per region.
