Global Trade Company & Shipment Data Scraper Features

• Returns combined, importer, and exporter shipment counts and USD values per company
• Extracts top HS codes with document counts, market share, and shipment value
• Includes named top buyer and supplier counterparties — not just totals
• Captures monthly trend series (shipment count and value, both directions)
• Adds a bill-of-lading-level sample shipment for both the import and export side
• Crawls Trademo's full company directory, sharded A-Z, so a run can walk the whole corpus or a slice of it

Who Uses Trademo Trade Data?

• Lead generation teams — build prospect lists of active importers and exporters filtered by trade volume, not guesswork
• Supply chain analysts — identify a company's actual trading partners from the named buyer and supplier fields
• Market researchers — track HS-code market share and monthly trend data to spot category shifts before they show up in official statistics
• Competitive intelligence — see who a competitor's counterparties are, and how their shipment volume moves month to month
• Logistics and freight brokers — target companies by shipment volume and trade lane, then reach out with a number attached instead of a hunch

How Global Trade Company & Shipment Data Scraper Works

1. Pick which letter shards of Trademo's company directory to crawl — A through Z, or leave it empty for the whole alphabet.
2. The scraper walks each shard's paginated company list and queues a profile request for every company it finds.
3. Each profile page yields one record: shipment aggregates, HS codes, trend history, named counterparties, and a sample shipment for each trade direction.
4. Records land in your dataset as they're collected, so you can start using the early ones before a large run finishes.

Input

{
  "maxItems": 100,
  "letters": ["a", "b"]
}

Field	Type	Default	Description
maxItems	Integer	10	Maximum number of company profiles to scrape.
letters	Array	(all)	Limit the crawl to these first-letter shards of Trademo's directory (company names beginning with the selected letters). Leave empty to crawl every shard A-Z.

Leave letters empty for a full alphabetical crawl, or narrow it to a handful of letters when you only need a slice of the corpus.

Resuming a large crawl

Every run emits a resumeCursor in its Output. If a large crawl stops before it finishes — because it hit maxItems, your spend cap (maxTotalChargeUsd), or was aborted — start a new run with the same input plus that resumeCursor to continue from where it left off. The crawl resumes from the queued work the previous run didn't reach.

• You are not re-charged for records the earlier run already delivered.
• Resume within your account's run-retention window — on the free tier, roughly your 10 most recent runs. Once the source run is pruned, its resumeCursor is no longer valid.
• resumeCursor is opaque — supply it unmodified.

FAQ

How do I scrape Trademo company data?

Set maxItems to how many company profiles you want and run it. Leave letters empty for a full A-Z crawl, or list specific letters to narrow the run to a slice of the directory.

What data can I get from Trademo?

Global Trade Company & Shipment Data Scraper returns a full trade-aggregate profile per company: shipment counts and USD values by direction, top HS codes with market share, named buyer and supplier counterparties, monthly trend history, and a sample bill-of-lading shipment for both import and export.

Does this only cover US trade, like most import/export scrapers?

No. Trademo tracks companies across 78+ reporting countries, so this covers non-US trade lanes that US-customs-only sources can't reach.

Can I filter by a specific letter of the alphabet?

Yes. Pass letters: ["a", "b"] (or any subset) to restrict the crawl to those first-letter shards of the company directory.

How much does Global Trade Company & Shipment Data Scraper cost to run?

Cost scales with maxItems — each company profile is one billed record. Check the Apify pricing tab on this actor's page for the current per-record rate.

Why Use Global Trade Company & Shipment Data Scraper?

• Broader than US customs data — covers 78+ reporting countries, not just the US import lanes every ImportYeti-style scraper is limited to.
• Named counterparties, not just totals — top buyers and top suppliers ship as real company names, so you know who a company actually trades with, not just how much.
• Full-corpus crawl — walks Trademo's entire letter-sharded directory in one run, so you get systematic coverage instead of one-company-at-a-time lookups.
