Users residing in Japan can now access any product data and advertising right through their Google Android phones. MyWebGrocer and Big have joined hands to offer the ShopSavvy application that enables customers to get the best prices of various products through their phone.
“We’re thrilled to be partnering with a mobile leader like Big in Japan. Customer response to ShopSavvy in the US has been incredible, and we are excited about being able to provide relevant and timely information on the 800,000 branded products across our 95 Grocery Retailers,” mentioned Alec Newcomb, MyWebGrocer’s Vice President.
“Grocery data has been a challenge for ShopSavvy from the very start. More than 25% of ShopSavvy users have scanned more than a million grocery items with limited success over the past year. Our partnership with MyWebGrocer means users can finally access real-time pricing and inventory for hundreds of thousands of grocery related items,” stated Alexander Muse co-founder of Big in Japan.
This application allows customers to search for product details by scanning barcodes. It then shows instant results from ShopSavvy. Shoppers can access information on prices for local and online items. It also allows customers create a wishlist and save their desired products. They can also be updated about price change by signing up for a particular section.
Relevant CPG advertising will be deployed this quarter while MyWebGrocer is currently available on ShopSavvy.
