ImportYeti Scraper — US Import Records, Suppliers & Trade Intelligence

From Zen Studio, creators of 1688 Wholesale and ThomasNet Suppliers, with 130,000+ combined runs. Established tools for finding manufacturers, researching suppliers and comparing sourcing options.

Why choose this actor?

75+ fields, with company details included. Go from a search result to supplier relationships, shipment volumes, product descriptions, shipping routes, carriers and recent bills of lading. Profile details are collected automatically.

See who supplies which products. Find suppliers grouped by HS product code, with countries and shipment counts. Compare trading partners using recent activity and shipment history, then shortlist the companies relevant to your sourcing needs.

Research up to 1,000 profiles per run. Search by company, product keyword or address. Filter for suppliers or US importers, recent shipments and minimum shipment volume to focus on actively trading businesses.

Quick start

Try 10 suppliers matching “hdmi cable” with shipments in the last six months. Company details are included automatically.

{
  "query": "hdmi cable",
  "type": "supplier",
  "mostRecentShipment": "6mo",
  "maxResults": 10
}

Open actor input to choose a company, product or location. Export JSON, CSV or Excel; JSON preserves nested suppliers, shipment histories and routes.

Fields depend on the profile. Phone numbers and emails may be masked or unavailable on ImportYeti. Unusually large sections are saved as linked files alongside the result.

FAQ

How many results can I extract? No hard limit. Set maxResults: 0 for unlimited.

Do I need an ImportYeti account? No. The scraper extracts publicly available data without any login.

How fresh is the data? Data is scraped in real time from ImportYeti, so you always get the latest available records.

Can I filter by country? Not directly as an input parameter, but you can use the search query (e.g., "germany automotive") or filter results by countryCode in your downstream processing.

What are HS codes and HTS codes? HS (Harmonized System) codes are international product classification codes. HTS (Harmonized Tariff Schedule) codes are the US-specific extension used for import duties. Both are included in the detail output.
