GSN Launches Recipe & Shopping iPhone App

The Grocery Shopping Network (GSN) has launched UCook, an iPhone app developed to provide shoppers with the digital weekly specials circular from their favorite grocers, a rich interactive recipe database with nutritional information, and a shopping engine.

The first version is free and can be used with grocery stores across the country that are powered by GSN’s Web services solutions.

“The new UCook app will give the grocers we serve a new way to provide value to their mobile customers,” said GSN CEO Andy Robinson. “Not only does this app give shoppers great recipes, but it also gives them quick and easy access to weekly specials in their grocery store.”

The UCook app can be found in the iTunes App Store, and UCook features over 60,000 kitchen-tested recipes with photos and nutritional information. The app also gives shoppers an easy-to-use shopping list, which keeps track of sale items and recipes for purchase at their local grocery store. (The same features and recipes are also available at the GSN-powered grocery store Web site.)

Some of the grocers for which the app is available are Apple Market, Cashwise, Coborns, Country Market, Country Mart, CV’s Family Foods, D’Agostino, Festival Foods, Food City, Foodland, Giant-Carlisle, Haggen, Homeland Stores, Hy-Vee, Kings Super Markets, Lucky Supermarkets, Martins, Plumb’s, Remke Markets, SaveMart, Scolari’s, Strack & Van Til, Top Food & Drug, Ukrops, United Supermarkets and Ultra Foods.

Minneapolis-based GSN provides Web site services and solutions to grocers of all sizes, and its Ad Network delivers over 5,500 retail grocery locations in the top U.S. markets.
