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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Freight Forwarder Directory Scraper — logistics companies worldwide (FIATA) **Get clean, structured data on freight forwarders and logistics companies worldwide** from the FIATA Members Directory (~150 countries, ~5,500 member firms). Filter by **country** and **member type**, export to JSON or CSV, ready for your CRM, spreadsheet, or LLM pipeline. **Company-level B2B data only — no personal contacts.** Built for anyone who sells **to** freight forwarders — carriers, NVOCCs, cargo insurers, customs brokers, logistics software/TMS vendors, port & warehouse services — plus shippers building a vetted forwarder shortlist by country. --- ### Why this actor FIATA membership is a quality signal (vetted, association-backed forwarders), but the directory is one country page at a time with no export. This actor turns it into a **clean, country × member-type-filtered, de-duplicated feed**, on demand and pay-per-result. There's no comparable freight-forwarder directory feed on the market. ### What you get per company Company-level fields only: - **Company:** name, FIATA member type (Individual Member / Association Member / Affiliate Member) - **Location:** country, postal address - **Contact (company-level):** website, phone, and a generic role email when one is published (personal/named emails are filtered out) > **No personal data.** This actor returns only company-level information. The source lists "Responsible persons" (named individuals) on each profile — **this actor strips that entirely** and never emits a person's name, title, or personal email. Only generic role mailboxes (e.g. `info@…`) are ever kept. --- ### Input | Field | Type | What it does | |---|---|---| | `countries` | list | One or more countries. Empty = all (~150). Accepts full names (`Singapore`), ISO-2 codes (`sg`), or aliases (`usa`, `uk`, `uae`). | | `memberTypes` | multi-select | Individual / Association / Affiliate Member. Empty = all. | | `maxResults` | integer | Cap the run (small number = cheap test). `0` = no limit (~5,500). | #### Example input ```json { "countries": ["sg", "de", "ae"], "memberTypes": ["Individual Member"], "maxResults": 500 } ```` #### Example output (one record) ```json { "name": "ACCESS WORLD SINGAPORE", "memberType": "Individual Member", "country": "Singapore", "address": "160 Robinson Road, #31-01, SBF Centre, 068914 SINGAPORE", "phone": "+65 6547 0233", "website": "http://www.accessworld.com", "url": "https://fiata.org/directory/sg/", "source": "fiata.org", "scrapedAt": "2026-05-24T02:00:00.000Z" } ``` *** ### How it works (and how it stays compliant) - Reads **public, non-login** country directory pages — results served **on demand** for your run. - Honours `robots.txt`; polite, rate-limited requests with an identifying User-Agent. - **Company-level only**; the "Responsible persons" (named individuals) block is stripped — to keep your use PDPA/GDPR-friendly. - You are responsible for using the extracted data in compliance with the source's terms and applicable law in your jurisdiction. ### Pricing Pay-per-result — you only pay for the companies you actually get. Run a small `maxResults` first to preview. *** *Keywords: freight forwarder directory, freight forwarder list, FIATA members scraper, FIATA directory, freight forwarders by country, logistics B2B leads, logistics company database, customs broker list, NVOCC directory, shipping company database, supply chain companies data, 3PL directory, international freight companies.* # Actor input Schema ## `countries` (type: `array`): One or more countries. Leave empty for ALL (~150 countries). Accepts full names ("Singapore", "Germany"), ISO-2 codes ("sg", "de"), or aliases ("usa", "uk", "uae"). ## `memberTypes` (type: `array`): One or more FIATA member types. Leave empty for ALL. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Stop after this many companies. Use a small number for a cheap test run. 0 = no limit (~5,500 total). ## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`): Maximum parallel country-page requests. Kept low by default to be polite to the source. ## Actor input object example ```json { "countries": [], "memberTypes": [], "maxResults": 200, "maxConcurrency": 4 } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
