MENY Denmark Scraper

Scrape everyday grocery prices, EAN barcodes, pack sizes and current promotions from MENY Denmark's store webshops — clean, structured product data, no login required.

MENY Denmark's main site (meny.dk) is a content/marketing site with no shop of its own. But individual MENY stores run a "click & collect" grocery webshop (e.g. parkvej.meny.dk) with a full everyday-priced product range — the same range you'd find on the shelf, not just weekly leaflet offers. This actor calls that webshop's own product API directly.

Why use this actor?

If you track Danish grocery prices, build a price-comparison tool, match products by EAN, or need a Nordic retail dataset, you need the everyday shelf price, not just the weekly flyer. This actor returns MENY's regular price for every product, flags which ones currently have an active promo, and gives you the EAN, pack size and a computed unit price for each one.

Typical users:

• Price-intelligence and price-comparison platforms tracking Danish retail.
• Brands and suppliers matching their catalogue by EAN barcode.
• Market researchers and analysts building Nordic grocery datasets.
• Developers who need a clean product feed instead of scraping HTML themselves.

How to scrape MENY data

1. Open the actor in the Apify Console.
2. Enter a store name — the subdomain slug of a MENY store that runs the grocery webshop, e.g. parkvej or saltum. The actor looks up that store's internal id automatically.
3. Optionally enter a search query in Danish, e.g. mælk, kaffe, smør. Leave it empty to get the whole store.
4. Set maxResults to how many products you want (a full store is roughly 27,000-33,000 SKUs).
5. Leave the proxy on the default Apify setting and click Start.
6. When the run finishes, download the results as JSON, CSV, Excel or feed them to an API.

The actor resolves the store's internal id from its homepage, fetches its category tree for readable category names, then pulls the product catalogue from the store's own product API in a single request. When you give a search query, filtering happens after the fetch, since the source has no server-side search of its own.

Two MENY web platforms — don't confuse them

MENY runs two separate online systems, and only one of them is a grocery catalogue:

• {store}.meny.dk (e.g. parkvej.meny.dk) — the everyday grocery webshop. This is what this actor scrapes.
• {store}.bestil.meny.dk (e.g. meny-grenaa.bestil.meny.dk) — a separate catering/party-order platform (festive set menus, not everyday groceries), on a different backend. MENY's own store locator (meny.dk/find-butik) links every one of its 116 physical stores to this catering platform, not to a grocery webshop — that's easy to mistake for "MENY has no online grocery catalogue," which is wrong. See "Store coverage" below.

Input

Field	Type	Required	Description
storeName	String	No	MENY store subdomain, e.g. parkvej (default: parkvej)
merchantId	Integer	No	Advanced: skip the storeName lookup with a known internal store id
searchQuery	String	No	Keyword filter in Danish, applied after fetching
categoryId	Integer	No	Advanced: restrict to one category id from the store's category tree
maxResults	Integer	No	Maximum products to return (default: 100)
proxyConfiguration	Object	No	Apify proxy settings (default Apify proxy works — no anti-bot on this source)

Example input

{
    "storeName": "parkvej",
    "searchQuery": "mælk",
    "maxResults": 20,
    "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true }
}

Store coverage

MENY's store locator lists 116 physical stores, but almost all of them only expose the catering platform ({store}.bestil.meny.dk), not the grocery webshop this actor reads. Testing every store's locator slug against a direct {slug}.meny.dk grocery webshop found 9 stores that run one, verified live 2026-09-09:

storeName	Store	Catalogue size (SKUs)
parkvej	MENY Parkvej 78 (Nykøbing F)	29,098
saltum	MENY Saltum	32,974
vildbjerg	MENY Vildbjerg	~29,000
blaavand	MENY Blåvand	~29,000
maribo	MENY Maribo	~29,000
nakskov	MENY Nakskov	~29,000
soroe	MENY Sorø	~29,000
roenne	MENY Rønne	29,937
hundested	MENY Hundested	27,740

This list ships with the actor (data/stores.json). If a storeName you try returns "could not find a merchantId," that store only runs the unrelated catering platform.

Output

Each result contains:

Field	Type	Example
name	String	"Nestle Cini Minis"
brand	String or null	"Nestle" — best-effort, see limitations
price	Number	30 — what you pay right now, per unit
originalPrice	Number or null	39.97 — everyday price, shown only when isPromo is true
everydayPrice	Number	39.97 — the regular shelf price, always populated
isPromo	Boolean	true
promoQuantity	Integer or null	1 — units the promo price covers (1 = plain discount, 2+ = multi-buy)
promoBundlePrice	Number or null	30 — the raw quoted price for promoQuantity units
currency	String	"DKK"
ean	String or null	"3387390339499"
unitPrice	String or null	"80,00 DKK/kg" — computed from the everyday price and pack size
packageSize	String or null	"375 GR"
category	String or null	"Morgenmad"
inStock	null	Always null — see limitations
retailer	String	"MENY Denmark"
storeName	String	"parkvej" — prices are per-store, not chain-wide
storeUrl	String	"https://parkvej.meny.dk"
productId	String	"475070770"
url	String	Constructed product page URL
imageUrl	String or null	Product image URL
scrapedAt	String	ISO 8601 timestamp

Notes and limitations

• This is per-store data, not a chain-wide price list. MENY Denmark is a franchise banner — each store sets its own prices. storeName and merchantId identify which specific store's shelf you're reading. Run the actor once per store you want to compare. This is not a small effect: sampling ~2,000 SKUs common to two verified stores (Parkvej and Saltum) on 2026-09-09 found 80% priced differently between the two — always treat a result's price as that store's price, never MENY's national price.
• Not every MENY store has this webshop. Only 9 of MENY's 116 stores were found to run the direct grocery webshop this actor reads (see "Store coverage" above) — the rest only expose an unrelated catering/party-order platform. If a store doesn't run the grocery webshop, the actor fails with a clear error rather than returning empty or wrong data.
• everydayPrice vs price: everydayPrice is always the regular shelf price. price is what a shopper actually pays right now — equal to everydayPrice normally, or the normalized per-unit promo price when isPromo is true. Some MENY promos are multi-buy deals rather than a flat per-unit cut; promoQuantity and promoBundlePrice preserve the original deal shape so you're never guessing whether a discount is per-unit or per-bundle.
• brand is best-effort — MENY's product API has no dedicated brand field. This actor takes the first word of the product name, which is often (not always) the brand.
• inStock is always null. The source catalogue API is a pricing feed, not a live inventory system — it doesn't expose stock levels, so this actor never guesses one.
• url is a constructed URL, following the site's confirmed {store}.meny.dk/produkter/{name-slug}-{ean} pattern. The EAN suffix is exact; the name-slug is built from the product name and may occasionally not match the live page's exact slug.
• The source has no free-text search endpoint — searchQuery filters client-side after the catalogue is fetched, so a search on a large store still reads the whole catalogue first.
• Run cost only settles once a run reports SUCCEEDED — a mid-run dataset read shows a cost far below the final total.

Cost

Pricing is pay-per-result: $0.002 per result, plus a $0.005 flat fee per run start. The actor calls a JSON API directly (no browser), so a full store catalogue (27,000-33,000 products) typically finishes in well under a minute.
