Bricorama Scraper

Extract product data, prices, ratings, and stock information from bricorama.fr -- a French DIY and home improvement chain with over 100 stores across France. Scrape tools, paint, flooring, plumbing, garden supplies, bathroom fixtures, and kitchen fittings.

What is Bricorama Scraper?

Bricorama is a well-established French DIY retailer that competes in the mid-market segment alongside Leroy Merlin, Castorama, and Brico Depot. With a network of stores throughout France and a comprehensive online catalog, Bricorama serves both casual renovators and serious bricoleurs.

This scraper extracts structured product data from their website. Typical use cases include:

• French DIY market intelligence -- Monitor how Bricorama prices compare to Leroy Merlin, Castorama, and Brico Depot across product categories. Track who has the lowest prices on tools, paint, and flooring
• Cross-border price comparison -- Compare French hardware pricing against German (OBI, Hornbach, Hagebau), Belgian (Brico, Hubo), and Nordic (Byggmax, Jula) retailers. The same DeWalt or Bosch product can cost 20-40% more or less depending on the country
• Product catalog mapping -- Extract full category structures and brand assortments for market entry research or competitive positioning
• Seasonal promotion monitoring -- Track French DIY promotional cycles: spring garden, summer outdoor, back-to-school renovation, and winter heating campaigns
• EAN-based matching -- Use EAN barcodes to match identical products across multiple European retailers for true like-for-like price comparison

FAQ

How does Bricorama compare to other French DIY sites? Bricorama occupies the mid-market. Brico Depot focuses on trade and budget buyers, Leroy Merlin targets premium renovators, and Castorama sits in between. Scraping all four gives you complete French DIY market coverage.

Does the scraper get EAN barcodes? Yes, when available in the JSON-LD structured data. EANs allow you to match identical products across Bricorama, Leroy Merlin, Brico Depot, and even German or Nordic retailers for true like-for-like comparison.

Can I scrape multiple categories in one run? Set categoryUrl to a top-level category and the scraper will follow subcategory links and pagination automatically. For truly separate categories, run the actor multiple times with different URLs.

Are prices including or excluding VAT? All prices are TTC (toutes taxes comprises) -- the consumer price including French VAT at 20%.

What if a product page has no JSON-LD? The scraper falls back to HTML parsing using itemprop attributes, CSS class patterns, and breadcrumb navigation. Most products return complete data through one method or the other.

How do I monitor specific products over time? Use Apify's scheduler to run the scraper daily or weekly with the same input. Each run creates a new dataset so you can track prices over time by comparing datasets.

Limitations

• All data is in French from bricorama.fr
• Product detail extraction combines JSON-LD and HTML fallback, so field completeness may vary by product page
• Pagination is handled automatically but stops when no more "next page" links are found
• The scraper does not extract store-level stock or click-and-collect availability
• Very large categories (10,000+ products) should be split across multiple runs for reliability
