La Comer Mexico Scraper & API

Extract La Comer Mexico supermarket products and prices by store. Collect EAN barcodes, brands, MXN prices, advertised promotions, package information and original product links for retail price monitoring. Export JSON, CSV or Excel through Apify.

Independent tool by Latin America Data. Not affiliated with or endorsed by La Comer or Grupo La Comer.

Quick start

{"term":"leche","maxItems":3,"maxRuntimeSecs":90}

For an uncapped search:

{"searchTerms":["leche","cafe"],"storeId":287,"maxRuntimeSecs":600}

Omit maxItems and maxPages to continue until the source ends, the time budget expires, or your Apify spending limit is reached. There is no default product/page cap. Time defaults to 240 seconds and can be increased to 7,200 seconds. Access recovery is automatic; no proxy configuration is required.

Uses

• Compare EAN-matched products against other Mexican supermarket catalogs.
• Monitor price changes and promotions through scheduled runs.
• Analyze brands, assortment and package sizes in a selected store.
• Build dated grocery datasets for purchasing and retail research.

Inputs

Input	Description
term	Search term; defaults to leche.
searchTerms	Optional 1-100 searches; replaces term. Products deduplicate across searches.
storeId	One active La Comer store. Default 287, La Comer Coyoacan. Other brands are rejected.
maxItems	Optional total product limit; none by default.
maxPages	Optional pages per search; none by default.
startPage	First page, default 1.
maxRuntimeSecs	Time budget, default 240 seconds, maximum 7200.

Find store IDs in the public storefront's store selector URLs (succId). Every run validates the store against the live directory. The actor does not silently switch to another store.

Output

Each product includes product_id (EAN), ean, sku, title, brand, price, list_price, currency, discount_percent, promotions, store_id, store_name, store_brand, available, reported_stock, availability_scope, category, subcategory, content_quantity, unit, package_description, sold_by_weight, price_basis, image_url, source_url, search_url, search_term, page, rank, scraped_at, source, country and status.

Optional values can be null. Stock is reported by the store search index, not a checkout guarantee. A quantity on the package is not automatically the full multipack quantity; no guessed per-unit price is computed. Weighted products retain their source unit and must not be compared as fixed-price packages. Promotions are not automatically deducted from prices.

Products are delivered progressively and charged once per EAN per run. A later failure preserves earlier products.

Run status

RUN_SUMMARY records results, completeness, stop reason and free performance metrics. DIAGNOSTICS contains free explanations, never billable rows.

• success: valid products; check complete and stop_reason for limits.
• no_results: explicitly empty search, zero product fees.
• partial: earlier products preserved after an error or time/spending limit.
• blocked / failed: no products obtained; the run fails visibly.

Price

USD 0.003 per delivered product, plus customer-paid Apify platform usage (including compute, storage and automatic proxies when used). 1,000 products cost USD 3.00 in result fees. Empty searches and diagnostics have no product fee; platform usage still applies. Use an Apify spending limit to control costs.

Source and limitations

The official Grupo La Comer storefront at https://www.lacomer.com.mx/lacomer/ supports La Comer stores through its store selector. This actor reads that storefront's public Amarello JSON search service, not a different retailer or a third-party delivery marketplace. It validates the selected store's brand and requests 50 listings per page.

The live storefront currently selects a search hostname containing the word "test"; that is the publicly configured route, not an inferred private environment. Pagination counts are checked; repeated or incomplete pages are treated as errors rather than silent completion.

Store prices and assortment can change during a run. Search ordering and relevance follow the source's search engine, including semantic matches. This is not every store, historical pricing, exact checkout stock, or a guarantee of uninterrupted source availability. No account login or private customer information is used.

API and scheduled monitoring

Run through Apify's API or schedule repeated searches to build your own history. Product links and timestamps make results auditable. Respect source terms and applicable rules.
