Global Sources Supplier Scraper

Search Global Sources by product keyword and pull verified B2B supplier and product listings — company name, product title, price, minimum order quantity (MOQ), location, image, and profile URL — as clean, structured rows.

Why use this actor

• Sourcing-grade supplier data — company name, location, and the products they sell, ready for lead lists and supplier shortlists.
• Product tiles with price and MOQ — see the asking price and minimum order quantity per product, not just a name.
• Keyword in, structured rows out — give it product keywords; get back PRODUCT and SUPPLIER records you can sort and filter.
• Loads each page fully like a real visitor — so you get the complete listing, not a stripped-down preview.
• Stable JSON output — the same field names every run, ready for spreadsheets, databases, or pipelines.
• No account, no API key — works straight from public search pages.

How it works

1. You provide one or more product keywords.
2. For each keyword, the actor opens the Global Sources supplier/product search and loads the page fully like a real visitor.
3. Each product tile becomes a PRODUCT record and each supplier becomes a SUPPLIER record, with name, price/MOQ where shown, location, image, and URL.
4. Everything lands in your dataset, exportable as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

You don't need to manage any browsers or scrapers.

Residential proxy required. Global Sources only serves its pages to a residential visitor. You must run this actor with the Apify Proxy RESIDENTIAL group (it is prefilled in the input). Because each page is loaded fully like a real visitor, this actor is more compute-intensive than a simple HTML scraper.

Input

{
    "queries": [
        "wireless earbuds",
        "solar panel"
    ],
    "maxItems": 50,
    "maxRequestRetries": 3,
    "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] }
}

Field	Type	Description
queries	array	Required. Product keywords to search for (one per entry). Each keyword returns its own supplier and product rows.
maxItems	integer	Maximum supplier/product rows to keep per keyword (1–500). Default 50.
maxRequestRetries	integer	How many times to reload a page that hasn't finished loading before moving on (1–10). Default 3.
proxyConfiguration	object	Required — use the RESIDENTIAL group. Global Sources only serves its pages to a residential visitor; without a residential proxy each keyword returns a block notice instead of data.

    "scrapedAt": "2026-06-10T18:06:28Z"
}

Field	Type	Description
recordType	string	"PRODUCT" for a product tile, "SUPPLIER" for a company.
_input	string	The keyword that produced this record.
productTitle	string	Product name (PRODUCT records).
company	string	Supplier / manufacturer company name.
price	string	Asking price as shown, when available.
currency	string	ISO currency of the price, when available.
moq	string	Minimum order quantity, when shown.

url	string	Product or supplier profile URL.
sourceUrl	string	The search page the record came from.

If a keyword's page cannot be loaded (for example when run without a residential proxy), the actor emits a clearly-marked diagnostic record (recordType: "DIAGNOSTIC") with an error and message explaining why, instead of silently skipping — so you always know what happened.
