## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## 🏢 Reed Expo exhibitor directory scraper: any RX Global fair, full contacts

**Pull the complete exhibitor directory for any Reed Exhibitions (RX Global) trade fair, with company contacts, stand numbers, logos, and product categories included.** Point it at London Book Fair, IBTM World, or any other RX Global fair and get every exhibitor as one clean, ready-to-use row. No login, no manual clicking through thousands of exhibitor pages.

### 🔍 What does Reed Expo exhibitor directory scraper do?

This Actor collects the public exhibitor directory published by [RX Global (Reed Exhibitions)](https://rxglobal.com/) for its trade fairs and turns it into structured rows you can use anywhere. Paste any fair's exhibitor directory page URL, set a limit, and press start.

Each row includes the exhibitor's company name, country, phone, email, and website, along with their stand reference, logo, product categories, represented brands, and downloadable brochures. Fields an exhibitor never published are simply left out, never guessed.

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.

### 💡 Why use Reed Expo exhibitor directory scraper?

RX Global runs hundreds of trade fairs worldwide, from London Book Fair for publishing to IBTM World for business travel and events. Manually browsing a directory of thousands of exhibitors to build a lead list takes days per fair.

- **B2B lead generation**: build a targeted list of exhibitors by fair or country, complete with contact details.
- **Market and competitor research**: see which companies are exhibiting, what stand they hold, and what they sell.
- **Sales and partnership outreach**: reach exhibitors directly using published emails, phone numbers, and websites.
- **Sourcing and procurement**: filter exhibitors by product category or represented brands to find new suppliers.
- **Works across the whole RX Global portfolio**: one Actor, any fair, just by changing the input URL.

### 💰 Pricing

This Actor uses pay per result, so you only pay for the exhibitor records you actually receive. Runs that return nothing cost nothing, and there are no monthly subscriptions or hidden fees. Set Max exhibitors to keep any run within your budget, and start small to preview the data before scaling up.

### ❓ FAQ

#### Is scraping the Reed Expo exhibitor directory legal?

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

#### Do I need an RX Global account or login?

No. The Actor needs no login and no account. Just paste a directory URL and press start.

#### Which fairs are supported?

Any RX Global fair that publishes an exhibitor directory page in the standard format is supported, just by pasting that fair's own directory URL. London Book Fair and IBTM World are verified working out of the box.

#### Why do some exhibitors have fewer fields than others?

Not every exhibitor fills in every field on the fair's platform. Some publish a phone number but not an email, or list represented brands but no products. 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 directory automatically, and send the output straight to your app or spreadsheet.

# Actor input Schema

## `directoryUrl` (type: `string`):

Full URL of any RX Global (Reed Exhibitions) fair's exhibitor-directory page, e.g. https://www.londonbookfair.co.uk/en-gb/exhibitor-directory.html or https://www.ibtmworld.com/en-gb/exhibitor-directory.html. Works for any fair on the RX Global sitebuilder platform that ships the standard exhibitor-directory widget.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):
