Abstract-The paper presents a system that enables consumers to order grocery online, view product and shop recommendations using an online
grocery shopping mobile application called ShopZoo. ShopZoo customer application enables users to purchase grocery, stationery & electronic
items online from local vendors. The proposed system constitutes a shopkeeper application that lets the shopkeeper have control over his
inventory and process orders. An admin application will let us add new shops and new products to a universal database. The customer can select
from a variety of products, based on an item-item collaborative recommendation system. A list of shops is displayed according to distance
nearest to customers current location and product availability. The idea is to help customers by recommending better options for similar
products with trust of buying from nearby shops. The shopkeeper application can be used by local vendors so it can increase their sales and help
them manage and expand their business online.

The item-item collaborative system eliminates the short
comings of the user-user collaborative approach. The
problems of user-user approach are:
a. Poor performance of system when number of
products is large but ratings are few
b. Costly computation of similarity in items
c. Computing of system every time the customer
profiles change
In order to overcome these problems, the item-item system
was proposed. It works as follows
