Scrape Global Sources B2B products, manufacturers, and supplier profiles — then download structured trade data as Excel, CSV, or JSON.
Use this Actor as a practical GlobalSources data API for Asia-focused supplier research, product sourcing, and catalog monitoring. Choose a mode, set a keyword or category, and get Dataset rows with product IDs, titles, company names, FOB/price strings, MOQ, images, and PDP URLs.
- Scrape product search (
/manufacturers/{keyword}.htmlwithpageNumpagination, ~80 rows/page) - Browse category landings and optionally enrich list rows with PDP details
- Pull product detail pages and supplier manufacturer homepages (
*.manufacturer.globalsources.com) - Surfaces: www, m. (mobile), and manufacturer subdomains
- Extract productId, title, companyName, price, minOrderQuantity, image, URL, supplierShortName
- Export to Excel / CSV / JSON, or connect Make, n8n, Zapier, Python, or the Apify API
- Pay per event — Actor start + each Dataset result; platform usage is included (you do not pay separate Apify compute on top)
Unofficial tool. This Actor is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Global Sources / GlobalSources.com. It collects publicly reachable product and supplier surfaces and does not log in, click Contact / Inquire / Chat, submit RFQs, or access private buyer accounts.
What does the GlobalSources Scraper do?
GlobalSources Scraper lets you extract structured B2B product and supplier data from www.globalsources.com without running your own proxy and browser fleet. Give it a keyword, category URL/ID, product URL, or supplier homepage, then start a run.
Under the hood, the Actor:
- Validates your input (mode, lang, query, URLs)
- Enforces free-tier caps when you are on a free Apify plan
- Fetches public GlobalSources listing and detail pages (Nuxt SSR payloads)
- Normalizes product / supplier rows into a clean Dataset
- Writes
INPUT_ECHO,RUN_SUMMARY(andERROR_SUMMARYon failure) to the key-value store
You run it like any other Apify Actor — schedule it, call it from the API, or plug it into automations.
What GlobalSources data can I extract?
| Data | Product search | Category | Product PDP | Supplier |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| productId / URL | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | related products* |
| title / productName | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | company name |
| companyName / supplierShortName | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
| price / FOB display string | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | — |
| minOrderQuantity (MOQ) | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | — |
| image / primaryImageUrl | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | logo / media* |
| lang / surface | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
*Supplier mode focuses on company profile fields; product lists on the supplier site depend on available public Nuxt data.
Why scrape GlobalSources?
Global Sources is a long-standing B2B marketplace connecting buyers with manufacturers and trading companies across electronics, consumer goods, industrial parts, and more. Teams scrape GlobalSources for supplier discovery, sourcing shortlists, price/MOQ monitoring, and assortment research:
- Monitor keyword product search results with stable
pageNumpagination - Follow category hubs and PDP detail pages for richer attributes
- Collect supplier homepage profiles on manufacturer subdomains
- Feed CRM, BI dashboards, Google Sheets, BigQuery, or AI agents with clean rows
- Avoid maintaining your own Imperva / residential browser stack
Compared with generic URL scrapers, this Actor returns GlobalSources-specific fields (productId, companyName, list price strings, MOQ) across search, category, PDP, and supplier modes.

FAQ
Is this an official Global Sources tool?
No. It is an unofficial third-party Actor and is not affiliated with Global Sources.
Do I need to log in or click Inquire?
No. The Actor only uses publicly reachable listing/detail pages. It does not automate Contact Supplier, Inquire Now, Chat, Register, or payment flows.
Why is pagination pageNum instead of page?
GlobalSources manufacturer search uses pageNum in the URL. Using ?page= does not advance the Nuxt searchList.
What happens on a free Apify plan?
You get up to 10 runs of this Actor and 200 results per run (limits set by the Actor developer). Paying Apify users are not capped by those run quotas; PPE event prices still apply.
Can I use this from the API / Standby?
Yes. Use normal Actor runs for production Dataset output. Standby exposes lightweight /health, /input-example, /openapi.json, and optional preview routes — see the Standby OpenAPI schema packaged with the Actor.
Tips for better runs
- Prefer specific sourcing keywords (
tws earphone,solar inverter) over single vague words - Keep
maxResultsmodest first; manufacturer pages return up to ~80 items perpageNum - Use
enrichDetailsonly when you need deeper PDP fields (costs more results/time) - For suppliers, prefer full
homepage_*.htmURLs orsupplierShortName+homepageId - Do not reuse README sample inputs for acceptance tests — use fresh random-valid queries
Integrations
- Apify API / client — start runs and pull Dataset items programmatically
- Schedules — re-run keyword monitors daily/weekly
- Webhooks — notify your stack when a run finishes
- Make / Zapier / n8n — push rows to Sheets, CRM, Slack, or warehouses
Standby (Live view)
When Standby is enabled:
GET //GET /health— Actor readiness (no scrape)GET /input-example— safe low-cost example inputGET /openapi.json— OpenAPI documentPOST /search— optional Live-view preview (cappedmaxResults); persist production results with a normal Actor run
Full jobs should be launched as normal Apify Actor runs so Dataset rows plus INPUT_ECHO, RUN_SUMMARY, and ERROR_SUMMARY are persisted.
Runtime
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Default memory | 1024 MB |
| Timeout default | 3600 s |
| Standby | Enabled (lightweight Live-view) |
| Free plan caps | 10 runs / 200 results per run |
