Open Food Facts Product Lookup (Barcode) — Free
Look up food, drink and grocery products by barcode (EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC) and get clean, structured data: product name, brand, Nutri-Score, NOVA processing group, Eco-Score, ingredients, allergens and full nutrition facts per 100 g. Powered by the open Open Food Facts database (recherche produit alimentaire par code-barres).
This actor is free — you only pay for your own Apify platform usage.
