This dataset is an extended extract of the main Open Prices Dataset https://huggingface.co/datasets/openfoodfacts/open-prices

What is Open Prices?

Open Prices is a project to collect and share prices of products around the world. It's a publicly available dataset that can be used for research, analysis, and more. Open Prices is developed and maintained by Open Food Facts.

There are currently few companies that own large databases of product prices at the barcode level. These prices are not freely available, but sold at a high price to private actors, researchers and other organizations that can afford them.

Open Prices aims to democratize access to price data by collecting and sharing product prices under an open licence. The data is available under the Open Database License (ODbL), which means that it can be used for any purpose, as long as you credit Open Prices and share any modifications you make to the dataset.

Why this extract

The Open Prices community launched its first contribution challenge in February. The community was asked to gather prices of hazelnut-spread products during a month.

This dataset contains the data gathered during the challenge. It is also crossed with OpenFoodFacts products information to ease reuse.
