ImportYeti Scraper: US import records, suppliers, trading partners and bills of lading

Scrape ImportYeti (US customs bill-of-lading data) without an account, cookies or a browser. Search US importers and overseas suppliers by name or by address, open any company or supplier page and get its full trade profile in one row: total ocean shipments, first and last shipment, shipments in the last 12 months, the top 50 suppliers (or customers) with their shipment counts, weight, TEU and HS codes, HS and HTS code breakdown, shipping lanes (port to port), carriers (SCAC), notify parties and the 50 most recent bills of lading. Or get the same data as flat rows: one row per trading partner, or one row per shipment.

Built for sourcing teams looking for a competitor's factories, Amazon and DTC sellers vetting suppliers, freight forwarders and customs brokers mapping who ships what, supply-chain and UFLPA risk analysts, and market researchers.

From US$ 2.00 per 1,000 rows. Full profiles US$ 3.00 per 1,000. No start fee, no monthly fee. Error rows, duplicates and rows outside your filters are free.

No emails and no phone numbers are ever returned: this Actor delivers company trade data, not contact lists.

What you can do with it

• Find a competitor's factories. Search the brand, open the importer profile and read its top 50 suppliers with country, shipment count, weight, HS codes, first and last shipment date.
• Vet a supplier before you wire money. Open the supplier page: how long it has been shipping to the US, how many shipments in the last 12 months, who its US customers are, which ports it ships from.
• Map an industrial zone. Search an address ("shenzhen longhua", "ho chi minh") and list every importer and supplier registered there.
• Feed a spreadsheet or CRM. Pick "Trading partners" or "Recent bills of lading" for flat rows with no nested lists. Export as CSV, Excel, JSON or through the API.
• Watch companies over time. Schedule the same links weekly and compare lastShipmentDate, shipmentsLast12Months and the partner list.

Input

Field	What it does
searchTerms	Company or supplier names, one per line (walmart, hon hai, yeti coolers).
urls	ImportYeti pages: https://www.importyeti.com/company/apple, supplier/foxconn-interconnect-technology or company/apple.
addressSearch	Address text, one per line. Finds the companies registered there.
resultType	profiles (default), searchResults, partners or shipments.
maxResultsPerSearch	Hits taken from each search, in ImportYeti's order. Default 10, up to 1,000.
maxItems	Hard cap on charged rows for the whole run.
entityType	all, company (US importers) or supplier (overseas shippers). Applies to search hits.
countries	Two-letter codes (US, CN, VN, IN...). Hits from other countries are skipped for free.
minShipments	Skip search hits with fewer total shipments.

Example: the top 5 US importers named "furniture" with more than 100 shipments, one row per supplier.

{
  "searchTerms": ["furniture"],
  "entityType": "company",
  "minShipments": 100,
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 5,
  "resultType": "partners"
}

An empty input runs a small example (3 profiles for "yeti coolers"), so the Actor never fails on a blank form.

Trading partner (resultType: partners) and search result (resultType: searchResults)

Partner rows carry the profile (profileName, profileUrl, profileType, partnerRole) plus every partner field with a partner prefix (partnerName, partnerCountry, partnerTotalShipments, partnerHsCodes, partnerLastShipmentDate...). Search rows are light: name, entityType, countryCode, address, totalShipments, mostRecentShipment, url, searchTerm, position.

Error rows (never charged)

errorCode	When
NOT_FOUND	The ImportYeti page does not exist.
INVALID_URL	The link is not an ImportYeti company or supplier page.
NO_RESULTS	The search found nothing.
NO_DATA	The page opened without trade data (retry later).
BLOCKED	ImportYeti refused every attempt for that request.
NOT_REACHED	The run timeout arrived before this item.
INVALID_INPUT	A field has a value the Actor cannot use (the message says which).
UNEXPECTED	Anything else; the rest of the run continues.

Pricing

Pay per event, no start fee:

Event	Price per 1,000 (Free plan)	Charged for
Row delivered	US$ 2.00	each search result row, trading-partner row or bill-of-lading row
Full profile delivered	US$ 3.00	each company or supplier profile row

Examples: 100 full profiles cost US$ 0.30. The top 50 suppliers of 20 importers (1,000 partner rows) cost US$ 2.00. A 1,000-row search-results list costs US$ 2.00. Error rows, duplicates and filtered-out hits are free, and maxItems is a hard stop.

How it works and limits

• It reads the same pages and search endpoint the ImportYeti website uses, over plain HTTP, through the Apify datacenter proxy with a fresh IP for every page. No login, no browser.
• ImportYeti shows the top 50 partners and the 50 most recent bills of lading on each page; that is what this Actor returns. Older individual shipments are behind ImportYeti's paid plans and are not scraped.
• Search is by name or address, like the ImportYeti search box. Product-description search is not offered.
• Dates are ISO (YYYY-MM-DD). Shipping cost is ImportYeti's own estimate (shippingCostCoveragePercent tells how many shipments it covers).
• Data is only as good as the customs manifests: some shippers are recorded as "missing in source document" (returned as null), and some companies ask US Customs for manifest confidentiality.
• Contact data is removed on purpose. Emails, phone numbers and contact blocks on the page are never returned, and every text field goes through a filter that replaces any email or phone number with [contact removed].

FAQ

Do I need an ImportYeti account? No. Everything comes from public pages.

Why is a full profile more expensive than a partner row? One profile row already holds up to 50 partners, 50 shipments and all the breakdowns. If you only need one of those lists as flat rows, partners or shipments is cheaper per useful fact.

Can I get emails or phone numbers of the companies? No. This Actor does not return contact data.

What if the run is restarted by the platform? Rows already in the dataset are not charged again: the Actor reads its own dataset when it starts and skips what was delivered.

How fast is it? In our tests: 3 profiles in 3 s, 12 profiles from a search in 13 s, 50 partner rows in 2 s.

Changelog

• 0.1 (2026-09-29): first version: search by name and address, profiles, partners, bills of lading, filters, resume after restart.
