Páginas Amarillas Argentina Business Scraper

Find businesses in Argentina's Páginas Amarillas (paginasamarillas.com.ar) directory by business name or service, such as plomeros, restaurantes or abogados, in all of Argentina or one city or province. Export business names, street addresses, cities, provinces, published phone numbers, websites and directory links to a spreadsheet.

Who it is for

• Sales and B2B lead generation: build local lead lists of plumbers, electricians, clinics or shops in a province, with phone and website.
• Local marketing agencies: find businesses in a city that have no website or only a social page.
• Market research: count and map businesses of one type by city or province.
• Directory and data teams: refresh a business list on a schedule and match it on businessId.

Quick start

The Console form starts with plomeros across Argentina, up to 50 businesses. An empty input {} runs exactly that. To search one province:

{
  "query": "plomeros",
  "locationWord": "Córdoba",
  "maxItems": 50
}

Input

Name	Type	Default	What it does
country	string	ar	Directory to search. Argentina (ar) is the only one covered.
query	string	plomeros	Business name or service to search for, 1 to 150 characters.
locationWord	string	empty	Optional city or province, such as Córdoba or Rosario. Leave empty for all of Argentina.
maxItems	integer	50	How many businesses to save, 1 to 1,000. Results arrive in pages of 15.

The form also has an optional connection setting; leave it at its default. A blank search term or a limit out of range stops the run with a message that names the field.

Output

One row per business, with duplicates removed. Example row from a plomeros search (values are illustrative):

{
  "businessId": "15723266",
  "name": "Agd Service- Destapaciones en Neuquén",
  "categories": [],
  "street": "Colombia",
  "streetNumber": "1616",
  "postalCode": null,
  "city": "Neuquén",
  "region": "Neuquen",
  "country": "AR",
  "phone": "(0299) 15 - 455 - 9934",
  "website": "http://www.serviceagd.com",
  "openingHours": null,
  "rating": null,
  "url": "https://www.paginasamarillas.com.ar/fichas/agd-service-destapaciones-en-neuquen_15723266/"
}

businessId is the directory's own id and the stable key for joins. region is the province. The run's status message says how many businesses were saved and why the run stopped (limit reached, end of results, or no matches).

Download results as JSON, CSV, Excel or XML from the dataset, or read them with the Apify API.

What is missing or empty

• categories is always an empty list, and postalCode, openingHours and rating are always empty: the directory does not show them in search results.
• phone, website and streetNumber are empty when the business has not published one. Published phone numbers are included regardless of their directory label. Valid website links include messaging apps and Facebook business pages.
• Business detail pages are not included, so there are no descriptions, emails, staff names or photos.
• A search with no matches finishes with an empty result and a clear message.

Pricing

Pay per result:

• $0.005 per run start (one start event per GB of memory; the default 512 MB run is one start event).
• $0.002 per business saved.

Worked costs: the default 50-business run is about $0.105; 1,000 businesses (the maximum) about $2.005. Only saved businesses are charged.

FAQ

How fresh is the data? Each run reads the directory when it starts; nothing is cached between runs.

Do accents matter? No. peluquerías and peluquerias return the same results.

Why do I see businesses from a nearby town? City and province matching is the directory's own, so a province search can include a few businesses from nearby areas.

Can I get emails? No. Search results do not show emails, and detail pages are not read.

Can I run it on a schedule? Yes. Run the same search weekly and compare on businessId to find new businesses.

Limits

• Argentina only, from paginasamarillas.com.ar.
• Up to 1,000 businesses per run.
• List-level fields only (no detail pages).

Privacy

The Actor collects only what businesses publish in the directory. Many small businesses trade under the owner's name and list a home address or mobile number, so treat results as personal data where local law requires it, and follow anti-spam rules before contacting anyone.

For help, contact Apify support and include the Actor run ID.
