🔍 What does Messe Frankfurt exhibitor directory scraper do?

This Actor collects the public exhibitor directory published by Messe Frankfurt for its trade fairs and turns it into structured rows you can use anywhere. Choose a fair, optionally narrow it with a keyword, and press start.

Each row includes the exhibitor's company name, full address, country, email, phone, and website, along with their hall and stand location, social media links, and the product categories they exhibit under. Contact persons are included whenever an exhibitor has published them.

Because it runs on the Apify platform, you also get scheduling, ready-made integrations, run monitoring, and clean exports in JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS.

❓ FAQ

Is scraping the Messe Frankfurt exhibitor directory legal?

This Actor collects only public data that anyone can view on Messe Frankfurt's website without logging in. Scraping public data is generally legal, but you are responsible for how you use the results. Follow Messe Frankfurt's terms and applicable laws.

Do I need a Messe Frankfurt account or login?

No. The Actor needs no login and no account. Just choose a fair and press start.

How do I find the right fair event code?

Use the fair's public display name with spaces removed and letters capitalized, for example CHRISTMASWORLD for Christmasworld. If a code returns zero results, double check the spelling against the fair's official name.

Why do some exhibitors have fewer fields than others?

Not every exhibitor fills in every field on Messe Frankfurt's platform. Some publish a phone number but not an email, or list categories but no social links. This Actor never fills in guesses. It only returns what the exhibitor actually published.

Can I schedule automatic runs?

Yes. Use the Apify Scheduler to refresh a fair's exhibitor list automatically, and send the output straight to your app or spreadsheet.
