Deutsche Messe Exhibitor List Scraper

Pull complete exhibitor company profiles from any Deutsche Messe trade fair directory — company name, full postal address, country, phone, website, exact hall & stand location, and social profiles across five networks — for Hannover Messe, DOMOTEX, LIGNA, INTERSCHUTZ, and 10+ other fairs from one tool. Built for B2B sales teams, market researchers, and event marketers who need a clean, contact-ready exhibitor list without copying companies off the fair website one card at a time.

Why This Scraper?

• Works across 10+ Deutsche Messe fairs from one tool — Hannover Messe, DOMOTEX, LIGNA, INTERSCHUTZ and the rest of the Deutsche Messe calendar all share one directory; paste any fair's listing URL and it just works.
• Full contact block per exhibitor — street address, city, country, phone number, and company website in every row, not just a name and a link.
• Social profiles across 5 networks — LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), and YouTube links captured from each company's own profile, never the fair's house accounts.
• Exact hall & stand location — every exhibitor's on-site position (e.g. "Hall 17, Stand F60") for floor-plan planning and booth visits.
• First-class keyword search — filter the directory to a company name, product, or industry term ("robotics", "flooring", "pumps") without hand-building a filtered URL.
• Country filter for 31 markets — keep only exhibitors based in a single country, from Germany and the US to China, Japan, and the UAE.
• One clean row per exhibitor — deduplicated on the profile URL, so overlapping fairs or repeated runs never double-count a company.
• Source fair stamped on every row — the fair field tags which event each company came from, so multi-fair pulls stay sortable.
• URL filters honored automatically — any hall, category, or search filter you apply on the fair website travels in the URL and is followed as-is.

Input Reference

What to Scrape

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
startUrls	string[]	example URL	One or more Deutsche Messe exhibitor listing page URLs (the "Exhibitors & Products" page of any fair). Any filters you applied on the website are already in the URL and are followed automatically. Use the English version of the page when available.
searchTerm	string	""	Optional keyword filter — a company name, product, or industry term (e.g. "robotics", "flooring", "pumps"). Leave empty to collect every exhibitor on the listing.

Filters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
country	select	All countries	Optional. Keep only exhibitors whose company is based in this country, matched on the country shown on each listing. 31 markets available, from Germany and the United States to China, Japan, and the United Arab Emirates.

Limits

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
maxResults	integer	100	Maximum number of exhibitors to collect across all listing URLs. Set to 0 to collect every exhibitor in the directory. Start with 10–50 to preview the data, then raise it.

Output

Each exhibitor becomes one flat row. Here's a representative result:

{
    "companyName": "ACME Robotics GmbH",
    "exhibitorUrl": "https://www.hannovermesse.de/exhibitor/acme-robotics/A123456",
    "fair": "hannovermesse",
    "address": "Industriestraße 12, 30521 Hannover",
    "country": "Germany",
    "phone": "+49 511 1234567",
    "website": "https://www.acme-robotics.com",
    "hallStand": "Hall 17, Stand F60",
    "linkedin": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/acme-robotics",
    "facebook": "https://www.facebook.com/acmerobotics",
    "instagram": "https://www.instagram.com/acmerobotics",
    "twitter": "https://x.com/acmerobotics",
    "youtube": "https://www.youtube.com/@acmerobotics"
}

Company & Location

Field	Type	Description
companyName	string	Exhibitor company name
exhibitorUrl	string	Link to the company's profile page in the fair directory
fair	string	The fair this exhibitor was found at (derived from the listing URL, e.g. hannovermesse, domotex)
address	string	Full postal address — street, postal code, and city
country	string	Country where the company is based
hallStand	string	Exact on-site location at the fair (e.g. "Hall 17, Stand F60")

Contact & Social

Field	Type	Description
phone	string	Company phone number
website	string	Company website URL
linkedin	string	Company LinkedIn profile URL
facebook	string	Company Facebook page URL
instagram	string	Company Instagram profile URL
twitter	string	Company X (Twitter) profile URL
youtube	string	Company YouTube channel URL

Contact and social fields are filled wherever the exhibitor publishes them — a company that lists no Instagram simply gets an empty instagram field, and the row is always kept.

Tips for Best Results

• Grab the URL straight from the fair's "Exhibitors & Products" page — apply any hall, category, or search filters on the website first, then copy the address bar; the scraper follows whatever filters are baked into that URL.
• Use the English version of the directory when a fair offers one — it gives the cleanest, most consistent field labels.
• Leave country empty to pull the full directory, then filter in your spreadsheet — handy when you want several markets at once or aren't sure which countries are represented.
• Combine a keyword with a fair URL to build a tightly targeted prospect list — e.g. "logistics" on Hannover Messe returns only the companies that matter to you.
• Start with maxResults of 10–50 to preview the data shape before launching a full directory pull.
• On very sparse country filters, the scraper stops early after a run of pages with no match so it never scans a huge directory for nothing — widen the keyword or remove the country filter if you expect more.
• Pass multiple fair URLs in one run to assemble a cross-event roster; the fair field on each row keeps the sources sortable.

Pricing

From $4.00 per 1,000 results — flat pay-per-result pricing, cheaper than tiered exhibitor-count rates. No compute or time-based charges — you pay per result, plus a small fixed per-run start fee. Bronze, Silver, and Gold subscribers pay progressively less; the table below shows total cost at each discount tier.

Results	No discount	Bronze	Silver	Gold
100	$0.48	$0.45	$0.43	$0.40
1,000	$4.80	$4.50	$4.30	$4.00
10,000	$48.00	$45.00	$43.00	$40.00
100,000	$480.00	$450.00	$430.00	$400.00

A "result" is one exhibitor row in your dataset. The small fixed per-run start fee is the only additional charge — there are no compute or time-based fees.
