How to Use Made-in-China Scraper

1. Find a product URL — navigate to made-in-china.com and find a product group page or individual product page you want to scrape.
2. Configure input — paste the URL into the startUrl field and adjust settings as needed.
3. Set spending limit — optionally set a maximum cost per run in the Console.
4. Run the Actor — click "Start" and wait for results.
5. Download data — export results as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the dataset.

Tips for Best Results

• Use proxy configuration — the default Apify Residential proxies help avoid IP blocks
• Set maxItems — use maxItems to limit results and control costs for large catalogs
• Product group pages — start with product group/category pages to crawl multiple products at once

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing:

Event	Price	Description
Actor start (apify-actor-start)	$0.00005	Automatic charge when run starts (includes 5 seconds of free compute)
Product scraped (product-scraped)	$0.01	Per successfully scraped product with complete data

Example costs:

• 100 products: ~$1.00
• 1,000 products: ~$10.00
• 10,000 products: ~$100.00

You can set a maximum spending limit per run to control costs. The Actor will automatically stop when the limit is reached.

Why Use Made-in-China Scraper?

Instead of manually opening supplier pages and copying prices into spreadsheets, start from a single product-group URL and get every product normalized into one dataset — pricing tiers, MOQs, certifications, and supplier contacts included. Schedule recurring runs to watch supplier prices move over time, or wire the dataset into your sourcing workflow via the Apify API.

Is it legal to scrape Made-in-China.com?

This scraper extracts only publicly available product data from made-in-china.com. Web scraping for personal or business research purposes is generally considered legal when scraping public data. However, you should:

• Review the website's Terms of Service
• Avoid scraping personal or private data
• Use data responsibly and ethically

For more information, see Apify's blog post on the legality of web scraping.

Limitations

• The Actor starts from a single startUrl per run; use the product-scraper variant to mix multiple URLs and keyword searches in one run
• Residential proxy is recommended for reliability on large catalogs
• Fields such as certifications and supplier contacts are only captured when the listing publishes them

FAQ

What kind of URL should I start from?

A product group (category) URL or an individual product URL from made-in-china.com. Product group pages let the Actor crawl many products in one run.

Can I scrape an unlimited number of products?

Yes — set maxItems to 0 for unlimited, though setting a limit is recommended to control costs on large catalogs.

What supplier details are extracted?

Supplier name, rating, years in business, audited/verified status, and contact information (email, phone, website) when published on the listing.

Does it capture product images?

Yes. includeImages is enabled by default and extracts product image URLs.

How do I keep costs under control?

Set maxItems to cap product count and set a maximum spending limit per run in the Console — the Actor stops automatically when the limit is reached.
