Fair Trade Federation Directory Scraper — verified fair-trade businesses

Get clean, structured data on Fair Trade Federation (FTF) member businesses — verified fair-trade brands, wholesalers, importers, and retailers. Filter by country / US state, business type, and sourcing region, export to JSON or CSV, ready for your CRM, spreadsheet, or LLM pipeline. Organization-level data only — no personal contacts.

Built for ethical-sourcing & sustainable-procurement teams, retailers seeking verified fair-trade suppliers, wholesale buyers, and researchers mapping the fair-trade economy.

Why this actor

FTF membership is a vetted ethical-sourcing signal, but the directory is browse-only with no export. This actor turns it into a clean, filterable, de-duplicated feed, on demand and pay-per-result. There's no comparable fair-trade directory feed on the market.

What you get per organization

Organization-level fields only:

• Org: name, organization type, primary business type, sales channels
• Location: country, US state, city, address
• Sourcing: source regions, brick-and-mortar flag
• Links/contact: website, generic business phone, generic role email (when published), profile URL
• Membership: member since, status

No personal data. The source stores a named staff contact + a personal email on each member record — this actor strips those entirely and never emits a person's name or personal email. Only generic role mailboxes (e.g. info@…) are ever kept.

Input

Field	Type	What it does
countries	list	Countries or US states (usa, canada, CA, NC). Empty = all.
businessTypes	list	Free-text match on org/business type (retailer, wholesale, producer, importer).
sourceRegions	list	Free-text match on sourcing region (south america, africa, asia).
maxResults	integer	Cap the run (small = cheap test). 0 = no limit.
